Attention to detail...

Ready for Finals and Advent to be over...

...both on the inside AND outside. Just as the Gentlemen have given great attention and care to the decorating of their rooms, common spaces, and chapel, so too have they to the exterior of the Hall. Christmas trees have been placed atop the south side porticos while wreathes with bright red bows have been hung which all give a subtle, yet elegant, Christmas look. On the decorations, Fr. Ralph said, "The decorations fit the Hall well, and the neighbors have noticed it too. They have done the same thing, but it's just not the same. It's all very much like trying to replicate a Monet, Van Gogh, or some other famous artist... you can do it, but in the end, it's a just a fake, spiritless, and unmoving attempt at being original."
