Fordham Takes a Break

The fall semester at Fordham has come to a close. Students have finished their rigorous final exams and have returned home, ready to sleep in, enjoy their mother's home cooking, and catch up with their high school friends. After a busy semester of thesis writing and interning at a publishing company in the city, I am thankful to be sitting here on the couch next to my snoozing beagle with nothing to do.

For the holidays, you can't beat home sweet home!

As grateful as I am to have some time to relax with my family, I can't believe how fast the semester went by. There were so many exciting things happening at Fordham this fall. Fordham's record-setting football team ended its season at 11-1. Student applications to Fordham's Lincoln Center campus were up 85% from last year, perhaps in anticipation of the new dorms being built there, or because of the new Gabelli School of Business program that will debut in 2014. Of course, we can't forget about the delicious new options available at Rose Hill this year, like Cosi and Panda Express!

The E-Board at our RHS Holiday party!

Now I'm officially a second-semester senior, and I can't wait to see what my last spring at Fordham has in store for me and for the rest of my RHS bloggers. We will return to campus, and to blogging, on January 13th. On behalf of the Executive Board, I wish you all the best of luck with your regular decision applications (due January 1) and hope that you and your families are happy and healthy this holiday season!
