Summer means relaxation for some, and for others it means an internship! So you’ve landed the job, and you start in a couple of weeks—but wait! What are you going to wear?

I am guilty for overindulging in snack foods and sweet treats with the burden of Finals hanging over me. I have used the “I deserve it” excuse one two many times that it led me to that OMG moment. In just over a week, I will be home and out bathing in the sun, but I soo don’t feel ready for the big reveal. Letting my mind drift off during my study breaks one day, I decided to...

At times like these—and by that I mean finals week—any extra pep talk or treat is welcomed as a ray of sunshine during these dark times of blue books and double-spaced Times New Roman papers. Luckily, there’s a new phenomenon going on through facebook on our campus: W&M Compliments!
