Goodbye to the Gang…

Tonight we saw the end of an era; tonight we saw a bit of history flutter from our eyes and fade into the transient light that makes up our campus.  We said goodbye to Myles Standish, Shelton Hall and Towers Dining Rooms for the last time tonight, though it may be corny it was like […]
