Promoted Announcement: Holy Cross Adopts Wildlife-Friendly Aesthetics
Holy Cross has announced the establishment of a new club, "Walk Around in the Woods for a Bit". This club, founded by Professor Joseph G Frascella, aims to provide a space for contemplation, reflection, and conversation amidst nature.
The club encourages members to walk in the woods during sunny, snowy, or any weather conditions. Members may experience moments of loneliness and introspection while in the woods, but they can also appreciate the tranquil bird songs and escape self-loathing. The club meetings take place in The Spire office at 3:00pm on Fridays, 11:00pm on Saturdays, and Sunday mornings at 6:00am. All meetings are mandatory for club members.
President Rougeau made the announcement to the board of trustees, but no information was provided about the structure, curriculum, or requirements of the club. The club may also offer opportunities to question the purpose of college work and the meaning of one's existence.
In addition to the new club, Holy Cross will introduce two new academic programs in the 2024-25 academic year: Clown Studies and Silly Studies. Details about these programs are yet to be disclosed.
Meanwhile, two articles have caught the attention of the student body. "Clipping an Eagle's Wings", written by Daniel Maddigan '24, imagines what it might be like to be an eagle, but no specific details about the eagle or the context are provided. Daniel Maddigan '24 is also the Chief Eggplant Editor, and it is unclear if he is the same person who wrote "Eggplant Outrage".
"Eggplant Outrage" discusses Americans rebelling against their capitalist oppressors. It's an intriguing read, but it does not seem to be related to the Walk Around in the Woods for a Bit club or the new academic programs.
In conclusion, Holy Cross continues to offer new opportunities for students to explore and grow, whether it's through club activities or academic programs. The Walk Around in the Woods for a Bit club and the new academic programs are exciting additions to the Holy Cross community, and we look forward to learning more about them in the coming months.
