Introducing a New Blogger
A new semester at the College means a lot of changes. Faculty and staff settle back into the school year routine, students take on new classes and experiences, and the campus comes alive again.

On Monday, we welcomed new graduate students to the College of Charleston at Saffron Café for an Orientation Social. (Many thanks to the wonderful staff for hosting us and for the delicious food.)
