We will also have a gallery set up in the Oak Room featuring a wide range of student artists.

Layering in Colder Weather

Victoria's outfit is all the more wonderful because she is this graceful and this gorgeous every day. Her outfits consistently reveal her unique personal style. She makes store-bought clothes her very own so that you no longer see the label of the clothes she wears but you just see her and her own style. All her clothes, including shoes, are from J. Crew in this photo and most of her wardrobe is J. Crew. If I organized a fashion show (and maybe SCA will), I would pick Victoria as stylist and feel very confident about the layering, color palette, and accessories of each outfit! Thanks Victoria!

Starting a new semester with style

I'm back from a semester abroad in the Netherlands and have learned a few things. I've learned that Grove City has more sunny days and pleasanter weather than Den Haag in Holland where I lived. And I learned that I missed seeing sun dresses. Living in the city, and a cold city, even through May, most people wore black and neutral colors. The color in my life in Den Haag was almost solely provided by my Spanish roommate Mayte. So it is good to be back and see on campus adorable dresses like this one on Callie. Callie was studying with her roommates, who I really enjoyed meeting and talking to, near the Quad when I asked her if I could take her photo. She got her dress at Target, which makes it that much more awesome. Like all of my favorite well-dressed girls, Callie said she dresses for comfort. But she has a really good eye too- the dress is gorgeous!

Mute

I hear what you're saying
Muffled through cement blocks -
Poetical praying
To the rhythm of clocks.

Beat, beat the words,
But it isn't quite working
There is a ford
But the water is murky.

Language takes its own way down,
Not a goose-stepping tread
Rather, it falls and it drowns
But I can't say it's dead.

Sunshine is more elusive than haze
So we talk and we laugh
Through a chink, in a daze
Pyramis, Thisbe, trapped in a gaff.

And yet there is love
Strained though may be
Cupped hand round a dove
We muse on the free.

Maria Lawson, '13

Through the Dark, Glassy

Creative impulses like a
Clear plastic umbrella -
Pops up to keep the wet out
But I can still see the
Drops fall from God's house
To my head and I
Flinch.
