This weekend is Halloween weekend and it sure to be a lot of fun. Even before attending this university, I have heard many people talk about Halloween in Athens. It has traditionally been a huge block party that people come from all over to attend. Court Street is closed down and is just filled with tons of people in all sorts of different costumes. There are live bands set up on the street and everyone just has a great time. I am especially excited because I have some friends from back home coming to visit that I haven't seen since the summer.

Seeing the New Academic Research Center

On Friday afternoon, I had the opportunity to take a tour of the new Academic Research Center which will be the new home to most of the classrooms for the Russ College of Engineering and Technology. The building isn’t completely finished but it is coming along beautifully and will be open this coming winter quarter.

Homecoming was this past weekend as well and it was very nice to see all of the returning alumni. There were many people that have graduated in the time I’ve been attending Ohio University that I have not seen since their graduation. There was the annual Homecoming parade on Saturday morning that I attended, and then we all headed to uptown Athens to get some food, drinks and catch up with the visiting alums.

Challenge Course

Yesterday I had to wake up early to get ready for the challenge course I was supposed to complete with the rest of the Engineering Ambassadors. But, due to the inclement weather the people who worked there decided that us being up 50 feet in the air while it was lightning out was not a good idea. So, instead we participated in some indoor team building activities that were quite a challenge.

After that we all met up at Bob Evans to get some breakfast and our advisor was nice enough to pick up the check. While there we thought it would be a great idea to meet up at Courtside Pizza to watch Ohio State put a beating on Illinois. It turned out to be a very fun time and I feel like it was a great bonding experience.
