Halfway There
As my sophomore year draws to a close, it’s mind-boggling to think that I’m halfway done college. Where did all the time go? I feel like I just got here!
Right now is a great time just to think about all the great times I’ve had here and everything I have to look forward too. I’ve [...]

Senior Week
With classes ending this coming Tuesday, finals beginning that Thursday, so much remains to complete before I’m ready to graduate. My last semester here at Messiah whizzed by, ending before I realized it even began. Papers and presentations flood my mind, making it impossible to enjoy these past few weeks. This week marked the deadline [...]

Looking towards the future…
As a senior, not a day goes by without someone asking me “So what are you going to do after Messiah?” Finally, I have come up with a blurb to dispute on repeat, but it wasn’t an easy process. Luckily, all the seniors are in the same boat. I find it really [...]

Remembering to Breathe as the School Year Comes to a Close
The end of a semester is always a hectic time for a college student, yet the end of spring semester can be especially crazy. With group projects, GPA’s to keep up, vacations to plan, summer jobs to secure, rooms to pack up, friends to reconnect with, friends to depart from, and finals on top of [...]

Just Dance!
I danced for 10 years growing up. Now I wasn’t very good but I still enjoyed it. When I came to college, I thought that my dancing days would have to be left behind me and I would have to move on. Until, I found that Messiah had it’s own dance program. Acclamation is a [...]

One World Wide
We live on a very diverse Earth. Travel 90 miles to the east of Messiah and you are in the midst of the inner city of Philadelphia, a place so close, yet the two places and the people within them seem almost completely unrelated. Imagine, then, how much more different societies must be in different [...]

Special Olympics!
What if I said that one Thursday out of the school year everyone on campus gets the day off? Sounds nice right? It sounds like a day to sleep in, relax, get some homework done, and hang out with friends. What would you think if I told you that a majority of Messiah’s students got [...]

Relay at Messiah
Last night (and this morning!) was Relay for Life here at Messiah College. It was a fantastic event put on by the American Cancer Society and Messiah College. Relay for Life is an all-nighter walkathon fundraiser, and all donations go to the ACS. Lots of people came out to participate and help raise money for [...]

Music at Messiah!
Being a caller at the admissions center, I’ve gotten to realize some patterns with students that come to Messiah, and one that I’ve noticed is that A LOT of you guys really like music! Whether it be choirs, bands, or just concerts, you guys seem to be extremely interested in music, and Messiah has SO [...]

Nearby Cities
Although Messiah College is located in the small town of Grantham, Pennsylvania bigger cities such as, Philadelphia, Washington DC, and Baltimore are not far away. Just last week a few of my friends and I went to Philly on a Wednesday night for a Needtobreathe concert. We left after classes for the 7:30 show and [...]
