Gettin’ Crafty

by Elizabeth October 24, 2011

Now that midterms are over, all of my classes are in that stage where we’ve just started a new unit, so there aren’t any impending quizzes or tests to freak out about.  This is nice for several reasons: a) I have a 731-page book on Alexander Hamilton to plow through ASAP for one of my [...]

The Return of the Test

by Lee October 21, 2011

In college, there is nothing dreaded more than exams. They have a way of sneaking up on students. Then, you feel there is no way you can already have a test since you just had a test last week– or what felt like last week! Those last minutes of studying and cramming will hopefully pay [...]

Autism Walk

by Alumni Posts October 21, 2011

This past weekend I was lucky enough to be apart of the St. Louis Walk Now for Autism Speaks. I was slightly nervous about it because this is something I had never done before and I had no idea what kind of turn out there would be. A group of us from NSSHLA met here [...]

The Big Decision

by Elizabeth October 16, 2011

Well, it’s midterms, folks, and high school seniors (like my sister Emily) are probably getting a little concerned as to where exactly they’ll be this time next year.  My own journey to Fontbonne was an irregular, weird, and stressful one (i.e., it was JULY before I picked a school), so I don’t feel qualified to [...]

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, [...]

Love of Wisdom

by Allison October 12, 2011

Everyone has that one class that is slightly harder than the others. My class is philosophy. Even though I find philosophy fascinating, I have a tendency to spend more hours than I should on the subject. The readings from Aristotle and Plato are difficult to understand, so I literally have to break the articles into [...]

My Most Challenging Class This Semester Isn’t Even a Class

by Erica October 12, 2011

Hello to everyone reading this blog! This is my first blog for this semester and there is good reason for why that is. Let’s just say that I’m SUPER involved here at Fontbonne and keeping up with everything can be quite challenging. Don’t get me wrong though, school is challenging enough, and as a Speech-Language [...]

I know it’s not the typical vacation activity for most, but its something that I try to integrate into my life daily. [...]

I’m  so excited to finally get out of production mode for a while and soak up some of this seventy-degree weather! What’s even better…I got a lovely surprise of flowers from my husband this afternoon to commemorate this glorious [...]
