“Are we there yet?” Book Review
This semester I am doing an independent study in history called “Tourism in Modern America.” I’m studying trends in tourism over the past century in America regionally and just finished my first book for the class.

Traveling the world with your sisters
This weekend, and the week leading up to it, has been all about recruitment. Our chapter of Kappa Alpha Theta has been meeting girls the past two days and learning more about each other and the wonderful women of this school.

You can travel all over the world, hitting all the continents and even countries, but wouldn’t it be spectacular to see the Berlin Wall be torn down, to see Thomas Jefferson … Continue reading
