Spoiler alert: Dance was really fun!
The PILA auction raises money for law students interested in working in public interest law to help them during unpaid/low-paying summer internships. They get donations of things to auction off like a week in someone's parent's beach house, gift certificates to local restaurants, or activities like dinner hosted at a professor's house.
The 1L class had a preparty in one of the hotel rooms that was more or less on-going throughout the dance.

There were dancing and drinking in the main ballroom, and tables outside the perimeter where you make written bids for items big and small. The bidding was cut off at midnight so people tried to wait for the more coveted items, ebay-style. The problem is that because of drinking and partying sometimes you forget to swing by for final bid. Each 1L section was encouraged to find something big to up for bid- and one of classmates family put a week at the beach house up for a bid, which was really nice. This years dance also had a masquerade theme though that mostly involved a few masks being made generally available. Lots of fun dancing and partying in general.
