This past week was full of events, because it was spirit week. Every semester, Fontbonne has a spirit week the week of the dance (which is on Saturdays). So, every day last week was leading up to the big, main event. It was very busy, but also a lot of fun and definitely worth losing [...]

However, thanks to the awesome support of the Fontbonne Community and my friends here, I have been feeling much better.

Today is the first day of Spring, and coincidentally happens to be the first day of my Spring break! I will be leaving for New York soon, and am so anxious to finally be in the city. I’ve been counting down the days and planning nonstop over the last couple weeks, so I can’t wait [...]

Springing into Spring Soon!

by Erica March 18, 2013

While it’s not officially Spring yet, I’ve noticed many people around the Fontbonne Campus catching “Spring fever.” Our campus’ hammocks have also appeared in the Medaille Meadow, which should be a sure sign of Spring coming!

by Marielle March 4, 2013

As I may have mentioned before – or if I haven’t, I’m about to start – every year the Environmental Club puts on an “Environmental Fair” to help educate the community about various eco-friendly/green businesses and organizations in St. Louis. In the past, we’ve featured organic/local food, the Fontbonne garden, endangered animals, electronic recycling, second-hand [...]
