I was up in Farrell Hall this morning in the 10-11 am hour, and the joint was jumping. No shortage of students who were out there doing everything from studying to eating breakfast to surfing the net on their laptops. The place was filled with […]
Happy Humpday, Deac families! You made it to the halfway point in the week! Here’s two quick updates today. The Good: Margot Lee Shetterly, the author of Hidden Figures, will be here speak at 7 p.m. in Wait Chapel on February 5. Hidden Figures is […]
