Spring on the River

This week's post (and playlist!) brought to you from Ella and Sendra:

Students arrived back on campus from break and spring is underway. The flowers are in bloom and so is final project. Students have begun individual research on their chosen topics, and the writing process is just starting. The rest of the week has been spent enjoying the weather, smelling the roses, taking power naps, and hanging out on the lawn. This weekend, many students are taking a break from their research to venture out to Point Reyes on OS34’s first overnight oxpedition. This weekend also features a special trip to Stephen Thomas’s house for a pizza party to kick off final project!

To get prepared for all of the artwork and writing ahead, here's an upbeat playlist to inspire some creativity!
