Daily Deac

Rounding out the week

It’s finally the end of the week and as your Deacs get through their afternoon classes today, I bet they are sighing sighs of relief. The weekend always brings a chance to sleep late, rest, and have some social diversions. I am superexcited because tonight […]


Friends

I am visiting my P’92 for a couple of days, so the message below is a pre-post. However, I wanted to add the message from President Hatch that went out to the campus community following the terrible events in Pittsburgh. Our hearts are with all […]
