Spring Fever
Spring is officially here! If last week’s 80° temperatures were any indication, Furman is well on its way into some brighter, warmer days. Since coming back from Spring Break, our beautiful campus has been replete with green grass, sunny skies and of course, purple flowers.

The Royal Inauguration
President Davis had her Inauguration ceremony this past Thursday, and being present at the event made me feel like royalty. The weather was gloomy, and we all sloshed through puddles and dodged the buckets of water dumping out of the sky to get to the ceremony. With this atmosphere, I deemed the catchphrase of the…Continue Reading The Royal Inauguration

Because of the chaos that is also known as midterms week at Furman, my friends and I also didn’t have a whole lot of time to…Continue Reading Spring Break, Thus Far

Taking a Break
There is a delicate balance between working and resting. As Spring Break becomes more and more concrete, and the countdown feels reasonable, I have to remember to focus on the ‘working’ aspect of school. Unfortunately, Midterms are the week before the break. Midterm week means there are more late nights in the library, but it…Continue Reading Taking a Break
