The Monday Catchup
RIP :*(
Big stuff happened this past weekend regarding Summer Sendoff, the Cove, and the National Football League. Whether you were sad, jazzed, juiced, or just downright frustrated, today marks the beginning of a new week.

It’s happened to all of us: that awkward moment where you walk into Peirce, and you don’t see anyone you know, and there are no tables open. And you do the casual-yet-super-awkward walk-through to see if anyone you know is there, but no luck. You stand in the atrium texting everyone you’ve ever met, hoping that you just missed someone.
