Besides relishing the extraordinarily warm and sunny weather conditions of this winter, students are also enjoying a new addition to our dining hall. This addition is a fully expanded vegetarian/vegan station at Frank. It was introduced this week and the response from students has been extremely positive.
Being a vegetarian, I am excited to see the dining hall offering more options for people with specific diets. The chefs at Frank took into consideration the suggestions and comments from students and decided to act on their wishes.
The food at the station has been great so far and I am grateful for the wonderful staff at Frank and their commitment to answer to the students’ requests.
Clubs have started meeting and have started to plan for this semester. I have already attended a variety of meetings and I hope to find time to participate in as many clubs as I can.
One club I find myself enjoying is women’s club volleyball. This group is full of talented players who enjoy the sport for exercise, meeting new people, and working together as a team. Women’s club volleyball will begin competing against other colleges starting in March. By then, I believe we will be ready to show our competitors our skills.
Last weekend ÌÇÐÄÊÓƵ students, who bought tickets, attended the David Guetta concert. It was a good time with great friends and it offered a change of scenery for those who had never been in Syracuse. The ÌÇÐÄÊÓƵ CAB organization undertook the task of transporting eighty students to and from a concert, which is no small feat; it was smooth traveling and a fun experience to remember.
After I went to Syracuse on Friday, a little bit of Syracuse came to me the following day. One of my good friends from back home, a student at Syracuse University, came and visited me last Saturday.
It was great to have her on campus and to show her around ÌÇÐÄÊÓƵ. We ate at one of my favorite restaurants in downtown Hamilton, Royal Indian Grill, and we spent time with my friends on campus. She seemed to really enjoy ÌÇÐÄÊÓƵ’s community feel, how easy it is to get from one place to another, and our beautiful campus.
This weekend brings rest for many students who have already taken some of their first tests of the semester, and for students who have tests next week, some time to study!
Look every Friday for my blog entries about what is going on at ÌÇÐÄÊÓƵ.
