Senior Week TrumBulletin

After returning from spring break, time always seems to whip by. Today is the last official day of classes for the semester. It’s time for Pamplona in the college, then Spring Fling, then reading week and, finally, finals.
For the moment do relax. Enjoy the (finally) warmer weather
Congratulations: Trumbull has won the Gimbel Cup
Wishing Dean Chandhoke the very best on her leave and Introducing our new Interim Trumbull Dean

Trum-Tea Today, 4 p.m. in the Trumbull House. Gabby Pascuzzi from Survivor
Today at 4 Gabby Pascuzzi who was a contestant on CBS’ Survivor show (on Fiji) will be our guest.
She will speak of her experiences on a reality TV show, how she came to be on the show, what the experience taught her, and how fans reacted with regard to gender dynamics, the power of social media, and feelings of vulnerability.
Thanks
As usual, I can’t believe the semester is almost over. Next week is the last week of classes and then there is reading period and finals. From now until the end of finals there will be many papers due and many exams accompanied by many study breaks later and early in the morning.
I wish everyone the best as we all work hard. Pace yourself. Do your best. Get enough sleep. Get some exercise. Be supportive of one another (and quiet as people work).
TrumBulletin – Thanksgiving Break
I wish you all a wonderful Thanksgiving break.
With our first snowfall, our dining hall’s annual and wonderful pre-Thanksgiving-Thanksgiving dinner and the impending pending Game against Harvard, I am reminded of how swiftly each semester passes. I wish you all a wonderful time at the Game (if you are going) and a great Thanksgiving and a restful and enjoyable break. I’ve heard from many that “we need this.” (We do!)
I hope all of you had a relaxing October Break with some extra time to sleep late, catch up with family if you went home or with friends if you stayed here or visited a friend’s family. I also hope that you had both a chance to recover from mid-terms taken or to prepare for mid-terms to be taken depending upon how these things fell for you.
I hope all enjoyed the beautiful weekend weather. (I did think, “This is wonderful. Why wasn’t the sailing trip this weekend?” But such activities have to be scheduled way ahead of time and weather just happens. My fingers are now crossed for good weather for our TrumBall.
