Page 4 Housing Happenings Thank You 2017-18 Residents! As the year is winding down I wanted to say thank you for making this a great year at University Courtyard. I cannot believe that in a week finals begin, boxes will be packed and the halls will start to empty. Some of you will head home, others off on some adventure, but no one will be coming home to the halls. Friends will not be down the hallway or up at 2:00am to talk with over a Taco Bell run. As I reflect over the year, I remember the challenges that were presented, but more importantly the fact that we survived them and are moving forward. My hope for you is that once your finals are over and you can breathe again, that you will treasure the experiences and the time that you spent in the halls. I want you to remember the friendships you made, the fun you had, and the stories behind it. For the graduating seniors, I wish you the best of luck as you enter a new phase in your life. For those returning with us, we will see you next year. Good luck to you all.
