A Spring Break spent in Wichita, KS isn’t as bad as some people might think it sounds. I promise. I just spent my week of vacation from classes right here on campus…and I actually had a lot of fun! At the beginning of the break was Newman Night at the Wichita ...

Well, we have officially hit that halfway point - Spring Break. This week off was a refreshing and energizing break from the same old routine. While I ended up working a full 40 hours at my other job (my alter ego is Laura Houser-Bank Teller), not worrying about deadlines for ...

“Six Weeks Remaining”

Why is the remaining few weeks of the semester so hard after spring break? It's the hardest transition out of all the other breaks. Summer break is hard to transition from but it must be done; so I naturally ease into the brand new school year with a positive outlook. ...

Rain and snow....the perfect Spring Break weather? Doubt it! However, just thinking about the fact that I will not have to do any homework or projects for a whole week makes the sun shine on my day. I don't plan on doing much, besides babysitting and relaxing. That is what ...

This past weekend was very busy! The Latin Dance was a success and by the end everyone was breaking out some new dance moves/ steps. It was different from the dances in the past, because the high school students that stayed the night on campus were able to ...

While the saying for March weather is known to be "In Like a Lion, Out Like a Lamb," I find it to be applicable to March events as well. However, I am beginning to notice a new trend: the lamb is no more; once the lion arrives, the lion likes ...

In the newest edition of The Vantage, the campus’ student-produced newspaper, there was an article about how one of my biology professors recently won a new 50” flat-screen television. The professor, who has already given so much to this school through many years of teaching and inspiring college students, decided ...

Okay so I will admit that the "title" is a bit cliché and makes most Kansans cringe, but I feel that it best represents the overall "theme" of this entry... Not to mention the fact that I LOVE the Wizard of Oz. What can I say?! Anyway, time to move ...
