You have to be ready!!!

Yesterday a group of us, who were helping guys move into Campbell Hall, took a break during the lull and watched an episode of Mr. Roger's Neighborhood. It was all about going to school for the first time and was especially appropriate since all the Fall athletes were moving in yesterday and the new students will move in tomorrow. One of the characters in make-believe-land was scaring all the children with as scary poem that made them think they weren't ready for school. The poem went something like this:


"You have to be ready, You have to be ready,
You have to be ready,
for school, for school!
You have to be ready or you'll be sorry!"
We thought it'd be appropriate to run down the halls and yell it when all the new students are here.
The campus is hopping now. All the athletes are back and we're still expecting many more students. The total enrollment, at least the last time I heard, for new students was 261! I'm excited for the rest of our wing girls to move in. We have a total of 8 girls who are new student/athletes and are expecting another 12 tomorrow. Woot! So far the girls seem really awesome, though I'm having problems remembering all their names. That is not unexpected on my part. I'm glad we all have to wear lanyards with our names on them. I hope that helps.
