The ranks are thinning. You can see it in the parking lots and in the [relatively fewer] numbers of students walking across campus. It’s fun to see students as they are departing, when you catch a hug with a roommate or friend or a kiss […]
We’re midway through Finals Week, and one of the places I hadn’t spent much time peoplewatching was the Living Room of Farrell Hall. So here’s a quickie Five Senses: I see… – The tables and chair clusters of the Living Room are about 1/3 […]
Last night was the “Late Night Breakfast” – which is held in the Pit from 10pm-midnight. Faculty and staff work alongside our ARAMARK/Campus Dining staff to serve breakfast to students. We know our students are studying for finals and need a break – maybe some […]
I hope that many of you joined us via livefeed at the 50th anniversary Lovefeast lastnight. This was as packed as I’ve ever seen it. Not only was it SRO in the chapel proper, they had an overflow seating in the newly-renovated Davis Chapel […]
