Seasonal Activities

Women's lacrosse players (and Boomer!) honor their senior players on "senior day."

Spring is in the air and seems to be treating everone on campus well. Lasell has been buzzing with students who have been locked up all winter and just now starting to see the promise of summer.

As I stated in previous posts, I live in Rockwell (the residence building closest to the lacrosse turf) and activities and spirits have surely changed on that side of campus. On a sunny afternoon it's not uncommon to see groups of people congregating on the turf, kicking soccer balls, playing some lacrosse or just sunning and chatting with friends.

Lacrosse, baseball, and softball have all gone into full swing in the past few weeks. All of the teams have been experiencing surprisingly good turn outs at games. Each event has proved to be a great time not only to socialize but also to get a taste of school spirit.

Another trend across campus this season: The Library. With finals leaving us with two or three weeks left to tie up loose ends for projects and papers, the library has become quite the hot spot on campus. I, myself, have spent the majority of my free time there this week working on papers and even a Window's Movie Maker project for my documentary film class.

Besides the minor monsoon-like rains we have been experiencing the past week or so, it's obvious that the activities on campus have been making a smooth shift from winter to spring.
