We've already established that being home for the summer is the worst thing to happen to a college student. As May Term ends, most students are now home for the summer or will soon be home until late August. They say you don't realize what you have until it's gone... which is exactly how most UR students are feeling right now. I have even more of an appreciation for our wonderful campus now that I've been without it for almost two months. While being home you realize just how much the little things mean to us and how much you miss them.
