Despite all of the great things that arrive with spring – sunshine, long days, ice cream, appropriate skirt weather – another sad reality also sets in, that an end has come to yet another year at the Heights. Whether we are just making it through freshman year on Newton (yes, you finally get to live on campus!) or are taking one last walk down Campanella Way in maroon and gold, the reality of growing up can be hard to handle. But fear not Peter Pan, because, in my experience, being a member of the BC community is a state of mind. By going to this school, you are part of an amazing group of people that won’t change if one is in Chestnut Hill or China. So no matter where you find yourself next year, songs are the best way to bring back memories and here are some that remind me of the 2010-2011 year and the BC experience in general. Hope they remind you as well and, until next year, have a great summer and don’t forget to turn up the volume!
