I’m a little late for the first day of fall, but we are nonetheless in the midst of all things orange, pumpkin and leafy. There are many events on campus that embrace the season. Many organizations have haunted houses (like the one offered during Family Weekend at Campus Rec).
There are many reasons why fall is a great season. You get to bring back the scarves, boots and everything warm and cozy. The trees on campus start turning into beautiful works of art by nature and hot chocolate and coffee become a must.
Also don’t forget that soon after the leaves fall and the days get colder and colder, the most wonderful time of year comes around! Leaves are really just an opening act to the winter wonderland yet to come.
Whether you look forward to fall 365 days of the year or you count down the days until it is over, be sure to try to embrace Fall this year. It is really a beautiful time of the year and should be experienced to its fullest.
Remember, you are never to old to enjoy fall!
