Summer!

May 12th, 2012

by Kaia Trubiano

Summer is finally here! I’ve actually been home for two weeks now, but it’s starting to feel like summer because all of my Cleveland friends are coming home.  I don’t have any big plans for the summer; I’m working at the breakfast diner I’ve worked at for five years and I’m hopefully volunteering at some [...]


SUMMERTIME

May 10th, 2012

by Catherine O'Brien

I finally made it! Final exams are over and I am headed home for the summer. This summer I will be working as a receptionist at a fitness center and as a counselor at a day camp. My hours will be gruesome (5:15 am – 10:00 am) but it will be well worth it when [...]


Sophomore Slump or Comeback of the Year?

Sophomore Slump or Comeback of the Year?

May 8th, 2012

by Ellen Gordon

Sorrryyyyy. I just couldn’t help making that the title of this blog, especially considering that within 48 hours (when my professors have promised my grades will be finalized in LOCUS), I will no longer be a college sophomore. That’s right, ladies and gents…I’m halfway done with my undergrad college career! This year was not what [...]


A Special Guest

May 8th, 2012

by Lori Greene

Lines of cars were backed up along Sheridan Avenue. Traffic in the area reflected more than your typical commute to work during April —end of school year or not. People were scattered outside of campus selling merchandise that proclaimed “Free Tibet.” IDs were checked. Conversations about peace and petitions for peace were plentiful. His Holiness [...]


Final(s) Week

Final(s) Week

May 3rd, 2012

by Raven Icaza

There seems to be an overwhelming shortage of new blog posts this week, and I can pretty much guess why: it’s finals week!  The excitement! The adrenaline! The weariness.. the fatigue… For me, this is also my final week!  One week from now I will be running… I mean walking across the stage at graduation! [...]


End of the Year Banquet

End of the Year Banquet

May 3rd, 2012

by Kaia Trubiano

As a celebration of our last week in Rome, the John Felice Rome Center staff threw us a huge party at a beautiful restaurant.  It was right in the middle of downtown Rome. It was a formal affair, so everyone was dressed to impress. The restaurant was really cool.  There was an upstairs and a [...]


Hello, Dalai!

April 27th, 2012

by Raven Icaza

So if you’ve been to the LUC homepage, or really any site that has anything to do with Loyola, then you are well aware of the fact that Loyola  hosted the Dalai Lama reccently.  Yesterday, on top of the fact that it was my very last day of classes of my undergrad career, I got [...]


Batman Band-aids Solve Everything

Batman Band-aids Solve Everything

April 27th, 2012

by Ellen Gordon

Earlier this week, I made the spontaneous decision to give up diet soda. We’re on the precipice of finals week, so I still needed to stay awake well into the night. In order to accomplish this, I switched to drinking caffeinated tea. So, for a few days, I essentially became a compulsive tea drinker. On Monday night, [...]


Enjoying My Residence Hall For One More Week

Enjoying My Residence Hall For One More Week

April 27th, 2012

by Antoinette Isama

This year I was assigned to Fordham Hall with the same roommate from my freshman year. We lived on the 12th floor with a great view of the city! We always enjoyed watching the sun rise and watching the sun set on clear days. The hues of the sky relax us from our stressful days [...]


Block Par-tay

Block Par-tay

April 25th, 2012

by Raven Icaza

Twice a year, or each semester, the school holds a block party for the Water Tower Campus. They shut down the intersection of Wabash and Pearson.  It’s pretty great.  Normally, they grill out, have dessert, have a band and some promotional stuff.  This semester, however, they really came through with great vendors.  Along the sidewalks [...]
