Soak Up The Sun

by Marielle February 25, 2013

One of the benefits of attending a college that leans heavy on the commuter side is that I don’t have to let go of the joys of a snow day. Yup, in case you haven’t read any of the other blogs, Fontbonne was graced with a day off last Thursday in honor of Snowpocalypse 2013. [...]

Win/Win

by Marielle February 18, 2013

I’d like to take this opportunity to dispel a myth of sorts that exists regarding college athletics. I feel that when most people think of hardcore, elite, watch-worthy teams, the only schools that come to mind are places like Mizzou, KU, Notre Dame, Duke, etc. – the big name Division I teams, basically. I would [...]

by Marielle February 11, 2013

Well, I’m sure I talk about this subject every year, but it’s worth mentioning again – it’s Recyclemania time!! From February 3rd through March 30th, Fontbonne is in a nation-wide competition with other colleges to see who can pound for pound recycle the most.

Well, now that Thanksgiving is behind us, it’s time to focus our attention on the most important part of December.  It may be a bit stressful to think about, but if you’re well prepared it won’t be a problem. The main thing is to go in with a game plan, stay positive, and don’t be [...]

Last Call

by Marielle November 19, 2012

Signs and Sugar

by Marielle November 12, 2012

It’s been a while since I’ve given an update on the Environmental Club (well, not really but whatever), so I’ll talk about what we’ve been up to recently! If you hang out on Fontbonne’s main campus, maybe you’ve noticed some new signs on or around the trash cans. These are part of a new campaign [...]

by Marielle November 5, 2012
