Since I have been in DC, I have started skimming the headlines of the New York Times almost every morning on the bus. I have watched my friends get increasingly frustrated by their schools and heard about the thousands of students who have tried to change the way their education is being handled.
I am so glad I don't have that to deal with. Yes, Lehigh is a private school but you can get out in four years if you pay attention. One of the things that is driving me crazy this summer is that I pay for tuition and a meal plan and housing but that doesn't cover everything that I need to get by. It seems like a really small thing but the fact that Lehigh doesn't charge for printing is privilege that I will be thankful for from now on. There, I don't have to strain my eyes reading page after page of information I need for a paper either on the computer or in a minuscule font that I was forced to use to not have it cost me a fortune to print. Their system of what I can use my dining dollar equivalents for makes no sense and is just annoying. Plus, food off campus is far more expensive than around Lehigh but there are pretty much similar types of options if you know where to look.
I know this is starting to sound all complainy so I am going to stop.
Lehigh is beautiful around this time. The snow is melting (or completely melted in some cases) and all the green is coming out again, and the flowers get planted and you can wear dresses again. Whoo, it really is one of the best times of year. I got to wear a dress and sandals after work today!
Oh Lehigh, how I miss thee. Oh by the way, did I mention we are going to the NCAA tournament! SOOO EXCITED TO WATCH MY SCHOOL!
