No Life In The Circle: Popular University Hangout Loses Its Vibe

“The Circle” is a one way roundabout that connects the female dormitories S.V.Totty Hall and Camille Shade Hall. It is also home of the Dunn dining facility. During the fall semester, the circle is the place to be. At any time of the day, you could walk outside and see both familiar and unfamiliar faces. After any event on campus, students would make their way to the circle to hang out. Loud music and fast cars are a part of the main attraction the only question that I have is WHY has the circle been so dead lately? I mean, this is one of the many things that Southern University is known for. Many other freshman are wondering the same thing. Even the return from winter break didn’t get students excited to be back in the circle. I just knew it was destined for greatness after spring break, yet here we are two weeks back into school and still nothing. I have come up with two possible solutions to this proposed problem. Maybe the circle is dead because students are stressed about finals, graduating and other things of that nature. Another reason could be that students simply do not find the circle to be entertaining anymore. Perhaps the underclassmen have found better ways to occupy their time. Whatever the cause may be, the festivities need to get going again in the circle. Southern’s upperclassmen or graduate students always say “back when I was a freshman, the circle was always live”. Now, the only time it can ever seem to be filled with any form of human life is when the fire alarm is pulled and students are forced to walk outside. With Spring Fest approaching, I know that there will be events taking place in order to get students excited about the fun filled week. If this does not cause the circle back to its regular self then I don’t know what will.
