As the college approaches its Centennial Weekend, there is a lot of work being done. The front halls of the main floor are all being painted in a color somewhere between seafoam and a weak mint julep …

Old trees and new power outside of the college.

Things that make you wonder …

The steeple of the former St. Mary’s Episcopal Church is surrounded by scaffolding now. The church is long since gone, but the steeple never came down and is now being preserved as part of Athens’ music scene – R.E.M. played their first show at the church in 1980.

The trees on this hill are disappearing, one by one.

The petals are falling already.

The college’s halls are being repainted, causing a stripping of the trim. The new color is … fresh.
