Photo gallery (Snow)flaking out on Bascom Hill

December 16, 2022

A sudden snowfall late on Dec. 14 (and early on Dec. 15) was the perfect study break opportunity for a group of students who met up on Bascom Hill. They sledded, built snowpeople, and of course, engaged in friendly snowball fights. Finals run from Dec. 16 to 22, but the snow will be here all winter.
