A look back at Brown

As I head off for exciting new adventures, I wanted to take a moment to share the recent past.  Here are a few visual representations, documented on my post-Commencement trip to Providence, which should help explain a small part of why it is simply impossible not to love Brown.

This was the view I had walking out the door every morning of senior year, making going to class that much more enjoyable.  This scene is, of course, up a sweeping stone staircase from the quiet street on which I lived.

Our common area junior year was on the other side of this second floor window (directly above the flowers).  Halfway between the main green and Barus & Holley, which was home to almost every math class I took at Brown, Hegeman was in the ideal location for snowy Providence winters.  Its proximity to the larger of the two dining halls on campus only seemed advantageous on especially rainy or icy days.

University Hall on the main green.  Could it be any more picturesque?

Sayles Hall, main green.  Enough said.

Even the Rock looks nice on a sunny day.  From the outside, that is.

Limitless reasons exist to cultivate a deep love for Brown over the course of four years.  Its storybook 'I can't believe real universities actually look like this' charm in the spring is one of them.
