Fall Welcome Weekend is winding down and I'm trying to recall all of the exhaustion, emotions, and crazy moments that the past few days have offered our staff. From the threat of a monsoon during Move In to the joys of Greychella and everything in between, FWW wasn't "perfect," but it still went really well thanks to the hard work and planning of our staff. I've come to realize that the extreme emotions experienced during FWW are best expressed through our good friend, Spongebob.
