Christmas at Mercyhurst

Well... I couldn't resist publishing a Christmas post.

There's nothing like Christmas at Mercyhurst. The school itself is beautiful year round, but at Christmas time our campus transforms into something special. A Christmas tree with white lights welcomes you into Old Main. The Student Union is transformed into a winter wonderland and the buildings are decorated with wreaths and lights.


Above is a picture of the Christmas tree located in the lobby of Old Main. 

The school holds several Christmas events on campus this month. Christmas on campus is a popular one. Kids from the Erie area come to Mercyhurst for the day and make crafts and play games. We also have our annual lighting of our campus Christmas tree. Free horse-drawn sleigh rides are given that night as well.

This is my favorite time of the year and I'm glad I'm constantly surrounded by Christmas here at school. Now all we need is some snow!!

As far as intel is concerned, nothing much has changed since last week. We are still grasping our project, we'll find out more during tomorrow's class. Once we have some developments I'll post them here.

Exactly 20 days until Christmas as I write this :) This is exciting!

Merry Christmas!
