Spring has Arrived…

Warmer weather is upon us. The first day of warm weather is the best. Students are wearing shorts, doing work outside, and joy persists ubiquitously around campus.

While I gave my weekly tour, I couldn’t help but feel so grateful to be a part of a community that is this special, and all of the students mingling outside helped the prospective students and families see the full potential that Holy Cross offers.

The weather has been so nice, and my friends and I have taken advantage of the beautiful scenery. We’ve been on walks, and we recently attended the Holy Cross baseball game against Army. We got takeout for dinner, and we cheered on the Crusaders in what would be the first of many under the lights baseball games.

The environment was electric. People were filled with spirit while watching the game. There was an common appreciation for the beautiful view and anticipation for the performance of the team.

My friends and I loved the experience, and we realized that one of the beautiful facets of the Holy Cross community is the ability to cheer on classmates that we know personally while also familiarizing ourselves with new faces. I’m proud and grateful to experience the Holy Cross family.

A Night to Remember…

Our Class President coordinated a formal for the Class of 2025 in the Hogan Ballroom! It was so much fun!

Getting ready was so much fun! All of us hung out together in Healy before the dance. Getting ready together made it feel like prom night, which I especially appreciated because I recognize that COVID-19 impacted the ability of many to have a traditional prom. We blared music while dancing and singing along to our favorite songs in anticipation for a great night ahead.

When we got to the formal, we danced the night away! It was a great time! Our class was a united front, and our class had a great time hitting the dance floor. We had a conga line, and we all enjoyed talking to one another and getting to know each other a bit more.

I really appreciated the night, and it ended in the best way possible: matching pjs! My friends and I debriefed the night in our matching outfits as we said farewell to a great night filled with fun and laughter.

I loved our class formal, and I am forever grateful for the closeness it brought to our class <3.
