Here goes a new year


We're all back on campus. A new academic year has started; we have brightly colored new syllabi in our folders; David Boren has addressed the freshmen; and our days are spent dashing between the North and South Ovals. Well, my day is spent going back and forth...You may be so fortunate as to have classes all in roughly the same area of campus, or at least have a schedule that allows enough time in between classes for you to have a leisurely stroll through the brick corridors.
This year is so different from the last. This year, now that I live off campus, I find myself appreciating the architecture and beauty of the campus so much more. My new motto? "Look up more." Both literally, and figuratively- to God.
Some things I've noticed this year:

1) We have a lot of fountains. Does anyone know how many? I want to go around and count, maybe schedule a fountain-counting day

2) The ghost bike is no longer there! See previous posts for explanations of what this was. At the PSC there is only a normal, silver, empty bike rack.

I wonder what else I'll notice this year.
