Spring is here, and although there isn't an ice sculpture or an enormous bonfire adorning the Green, we have something else to signify our favorite weekend's return. It's that fun, stress-free feeling in the air -- it's Green Key.
With midterms over with and finals still weeks away, Green Key gives us a chance to blow off steam, relax and go all out. Green Key means a lot of things: barbecues on frat row, live jams on the street and partying for days on end.
Green Key is about letting loose and celebrating the gorgeous weather before the procrastination finally catches up to you. Yes, we know. In three weeks you'll be frantically cramming for finals. But forget about all that for now. Get yourself out there and be silly. Don't take the weekend -- or yourself for that matter -- seriously. It's your last chance to really cut loose before exams sneak up and it's the best time of the year to do it.
With many of us having returned from terms off or abroad during the winter, it's important to reconnect with classmates before D-Plans diverge again. Step away from that laptop, disconnect yourself from Blitz and spend time outdoors with friends.
Like our four short years in College, Green Key weekend can go by in a haze if you're not careful, so make sure to experience all of it.
