Today is simply glorious! The sun is out, the winds are calm, and it is a happy, happy weather day for all. As such, today I’ll share just a few news items upfront, but then will regale you with some of the best pictures that our crack photo team has been taking of late.
A sampling of upcoming events for students
We have a wide variety of events coming up for students. Here’s a sampling of just a few of them, but your Deacs should check the Corq app (or The Link website) to see what interests them.

Best of spring photos
Hello, gorgeous! Enjoy some of the sights your Deacs have been seeing this spring (click on any photo to enlarge). I know come fall I will change my mind and tell you fall is the prettier season (because it’s what I will be seeing at the time) – but honestly, it doesn’t get much better than this 🙂
