The Winter Chronicles
It is a bummer that winter is coming to an end, but I can't let it end without showing you some of the highlights from my winter term. Prepare to embark on a pictorial journey through my Winter term.
- No. 1
Baker-Berry + Snow = Snow-Berry
What would my winter term be without a picture of Baker Berry Library? Overall, this has been one my go-to study spots. Being home to one of Dartmouth’s finest cafés, Novack Café, who can resist the urge to take a short 10-minute break just to walk over Novack to get the lip-smacking strawberry açai–my personal favorite–and the mouthwatering Decadent Cinnamon Bun.

Stacks, stacks, stacks!
Stacks, stacks, stacks! If you ever want a procrastination free zone this is the place for you. In Dartmouth’s Baker Stacks, unfinished papers turn into masterpieces, deadlines are met, and of course amazing blog pictures are taken–and they are not products of procrastination (maybe a little haha).

Do You Want To Build a Snowman?
Do You Want To Build a Snowman? Of course, you do. Even though I am not the one who built the snowman in the picture, it wouldn’t be a winter term blog post if it didn’t have a snowman. At Dartmouth, there is no room for bad days. If you feel like you are having a bad day during your winter term, just go outside, dive into the snow pile, make a snow angel, and when you are done, stand up and start piling up the snow until you have your self an awesome snowman.

Did someone say Bema lights?
Bema lights is a spectacular light show organized by Dartmouth's Office of Student Life where you get to experience New England’s winter and snow with a little bit of pizzaz: with a remarkable interactive light and sound installation. It is a good way to make new friends and just chill in the snow.
