The quiet before...

Sun and smiles!

... the storm. It's a beautiful, sunny spring day at Notre Dame, causing everyone to find an open space on a quad and soak up some sunshine. But amid the warm temps, sun, and smiles, something is quietly lurking in the minds of every Stedsmen. Indeed, it's lurking about causing a fair amount anxiety as well as excitement. What is it? Room Picks! Tonight is the night when all returning residents of St. Ed's will pick their room for the 2023-2024 academic year. Suffice it to say, there is a good deal of anxiety and excitement, but the good news is, everyone will have a room at the oldest and most storied residence hall at Notre Dame. Taking advantage of the turn in the weather Aidan Ekizian (L) and Colin Davidson (R) invited Olivia (C) to the Park, and from the photo above, it appears as if Ekizian and Davidson don't have a care in the world... or do they? On room picks happening tonight, Davidson shared, "Not sure what’s worse, the chaos of room picks we face tonight or my eight plus hours spent on comp sci homework, but the nice weather makes both a little more manageable, " while Ekizian disclosed, "It was a perfect day in St Ed's Park! Exactly what I needed before a stressful night of room picks.”

But what about Olivia, what is she thinking? On the enjoying the Park, Olivia stated, "While Steds may not have air conditioning like my hall, Welsh Family, St. Ed's does have a nicer front yard. I love Steds!”
