BU offers free events every Thursday, Friday and Saturday of the semester at BU Central, located in the basement of the GSU.
BU Central hosts everyone from local bands to up-and-coming traveling muscians and comedians. It also runs events throughout the semester, from the Adult Spelling Bee (can you spell *****?) to The Roommate Game (like Newlyweds).
Students with BU IDs may bring guests most nights, but should ask in advance - popular events may be restricted to BU only.
