campus

I love it when the sun is shining, faces are smiling, and good vibes are all around.

Here are some events/activities that happened recently that fulfilled those requirements:

I explored Creve Coeur Park with these lovely people (Iris, Carlos, Ben, and Bryar who isn't pictured).

Fontbonne Current Students and Alumni got together to volunteer at City Seeds Urban Farm with Gateway Greening.

I got to visit Grant's Farm for the first time with a group of Students and Residence Hall Association.

We even got to feed baby goats at Grant's Farm!

Enjoying a spur of the moment picnic at Oak Knoll Park!

Having some picture-taking fun in Medaille Meadow on campus.

Peace, Love, & Beautiful Weather.

Surprised

A surprise to me is how friendly everyone is here. I have met some interesting people. My floor mate Alex and I are becoming best friends, we are talking to each other a lot more than at the beginning of the year. I’m normally the shy guy, but the people here are just great to talk to. I’m becoming less shy here. I have a good group of friends here that are so friendly and talkative. Everyone at my last school just wanted class to be over so they could go home, but people here just stay and hang out with me.

There are so many places I like at Fontbonne, but if you ask me my favorite place, I will answer you “the Library is the best one in my life.”

Here are some reasons why I go to the library almost every day.

  • Many useful resources.

I like to go to the library very often, to borrow books, DVDs, or just sit down to read magazines and journals. Fontbonne updates the books and DVDs very often, such as I just saw the newest movie “The Avengers” a few weeks ago. It’s so neat, isn’t it?

  • Computers

At Fontbonne library, we have so many computers available for students to use. I use the computer very often especially since I had to write many papers or essays at the same time. It’s a very comfortable environment for me.

  • Friendly staff

As you can see, all the staff in the library are willing to help students if we have questions. They helped me a lot when writing my research papers.

That’s why I love the library a lot.

Just last week, my friend Shannon and I were both feeling stressed because of our classes and work. To relieve stress, we decided we were going to have a day around campus! We took “naps” in the Meadow (it was more like we just laid there in the sun chatting), we drew with chalk around the parking lot, we went for some bike rides around campus, and we even took a walk to find Concordia fields because we had never been, but we knew many other students went there to play soccer, sand volleyball, and tennis so we wanted to figure out where it was so we could go there too sometime! There are a lot of fun things to do around Fontbonne’s campus when you want to :)

Change is Good

by Conner April 16, 2012

Well, this is it. There’s just four weeks left of my first year of college! I can hardly believe it. This past week was quite a busy one, with final projects being introduced and other class related things to do. SHESA (Student Human Environmental Sciences Association) is sponsoring Denim Day in a couple of weeks, [...]

small campus size

by Alumni Posts February 21, 2012

One thing that is quite nice about Fontbonne is the small campus size. It is impossible to get lost on campus, something that is quite possible at larger schools.

The one person every student should get to know on campus

by Madison October 13, 2011

There are so many great people that every student should get to know on campus. It might just be too hard a task to narrow it down to one. So to be fair, I’ll break this topic down, and I’ll choose a person in an educational sense, as well as in the social scene. Therefore, [...]

Midterms

by Elizabeth P. October 12, 2011

Midterms. The one word every college student never wants to hear. The big scary test that happens before the exam. Well, they are definitely scaring me. I have two of my midterms on the same day. I had always been lucky enough in high school to never have more than one test on the same [...]

Places to go, People to know!

by Aaron October 4, 2011

This week, I was asked to talk about someone on campus who is important to know. Well, I couldn’t physically name just one person. I feel every adult on campus is important to know in some way for some reason. Depending on what your interests are, some people are more important than others. The people [...]

People to Know

by Alumni Posts April 26, 2011

This is my 3rd year at Fontbonne and there are so many people on this campus who have been influential and who I feel privileged to have met. Though I could write about influential people here for hours, I will spare some time and just cover a few who stand out to me. I will [...]
