The snow really started to fall on December 6, 2002. Click on the image to see a larger version.

I started taking pictures as I was walking
through the Dustbowl. I was informed by Shaun as to why it is called this:
"They call the dustbowl the dustbowl because when the college was very new and small that area used to be the track and field section
and they used to have a track running around it. Well when it got bigger and moved, because of all the wear and tear the grass
wouldn't grow there, so it was just one big dust bowl. Finally with fertilization
and time the grass grew back, but the name stuck." Straight ahead is Lyons Hall. |
|
That is the new Higgins hall. This is the
newly redone brick road in front of Fulton Hall. I don't know why I didn't
take a picture of Fulton, but it really is a nice building that has
recently been renovated. |
|
Here is the mystery object in the quad. It's
not a fountain or a pedestal. More info to come later. |
|
I love how the trees catch the snow on their
branches. |
|
Here is the library in an architecture that
is odd for the campus. I don't mind it too much, and there is a nice brick
plaza in front where people congregate at times. |
|
Here is the Golden Eagle in front of Gasson.
Once again, those windows on this side of Gasson are so cool. How could
anyone not love this building. |
|
Here is the walk towards the main gate
from Gasson. The people on the Newton Campus know this walk well. |
|
Here is how Gasson looks from the street that
heads to the Main Gate. If you can't tell, it's my favorite building. |
|
Here is St. Mary's and this is the building
that the Jesuits live in. |
|
I just liked this when I saw it. If you look,
you can see that this girl walked through the virgin snow to talk to a
friend at Bapst Library. There are so many little metaphors I could make,
but I'll leave that up to the reader. |
|
If you look closely you can see Boston from
the campus. The main building is the Prudential. I should be taking my
camera to the top of that building. More details later. |
|
This is a random bench along the way, but
this is one of my favorite shots on this page. I just like how it looked. |
|
Here is the Main Gate stop on the shuttle. I
love the shuttle. |
|
Here is the other end of Bapst / Burns
library. The buildings on the campus are so lovely and this is is no
exception. |
|
There are two ways to Upper Campus, one is
the stairs, and the other is through this little neighborhood. There are
so many quaint houses along the second way and I took pictures of a couple of
them. When I saw this I thought it looked like a
gingerbread house. |
|
Here is a second quaint house near campus. |
|
Here is the student center on campus.
However, because it is on Upper campus, not too many people make it up
here who aren't Freshmen. |
