My Lighthouse

With the danger of sounding cliche and too much of a walking advertisement for HUGSR and on-campus living I want to spend a little time discussing my favorite aspect of my experience here.  The community aspect of HUGSR is great.  I have met some lifelong friends during my two years here.  I enjoy being able to have the opportunity to meet people so easily.  I will probably never have an opportunity in which I am able to meet so many people with my interests after I finish my time here.

There are memorable times, such as an unofficial official ice cream social in the courtyard that will make me remember the relationships formed.  Picnics with other friends and going out to experience Memphis are also things I have been able to do with the good friends I have made here.  The community has also made the transition for my wife easier as she was able to have some friends who know the pains of having a husband in grad school.

So, when I am asked what the best part of school is, I answer community.  The ads may seem cliche but they are very true.
