Halfway Point!

You’ve reached a digital checkpoint – stop scrolling!

At least – that’s what I would start this with if we were on a social media app, instead of a blog. It grabbed your attention despite the platform confusion, so let’s run with it. 

Welcome to the halfway point!

The first half of the fall term absolutely flew by. With three exhibitions, Alumni Weekend and MV for a Day all crammed into September, these first couple of quiet weeks in October have been a welcome relief for the busy schedules of our high-achieving students. 

The latter half of the semester follows a more casual pace.

  • Boston College – October 17 (Pregame)

  • Georgia Tech – October 26 (Homecoming)

  • Clemson University – November 9 (Hokies for the Hungry)

  • UVA – November 30 (Senior Recognition & Band Parent Day)

These games each feature a special event, so take advantage of the slower pace to sit back and enjoy these time-honored traditions. 

And, keep an eye out for the beginning of basketball season; the pep band got rolling on Monday and can’t wait to bring an exciting atmosphere to Cassell Coliseum.
