All Quiet on Campus



A view from the front porch of Zehntbauer (the swim pavilion, where the crew program office lives) this afternoon. Obviously people were sledding earlier but it was very quiet on campus today as students wrapped up finals. Some interesting challenges present themselves to our students as for the first time in school history a finals day (Monday) had to be canceled due to weather. Professors are left to assign a take home final, reschedule to fit with their classes availability, or wait until the start of the spring semester.

I like to think our athletes are better prepared then those without athletic experience; part of success in the competitive arena is being able to adapt to challenges and circumstances other then what was prepared for. Good luck to all our team members as they finish with finals, and safe travels to everyone headed home or wherever the holidays find you.
