Blog entries from students having studied abroad.
While my first semester at Wheaton has barely begun, I feel like I’ve met so many people and learned so much about this great campus already. I know I have so many more people to meet and so much more to learn, and I hope that you will continue to help me with this. Everyone […]

I’m pleased to report that your Student Government Association (SGA) Executive Board has been meeting since early August as a group and with administrative officials, such as President Hanno and Dean McCaffrey, about what we wish to accomplish this […]

I grew up a picky eater, the kind of kid that never strayed too far from the palatable realm of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, string cheese, and applesauce. Over the years my tastes have certainly changed, but one aspect of my diet has remained consistent: my vegetarianism. While I cannot claim that my choice […]

Wearing matching blue t-shirts, the Relay for Life 2014 Walk for Cancer committee were so enthusiastic to see Mac Attack in our purple, hand-made shirts from Michael’s, […]
