What a Beautiful Day in Marshall!

Another week has flown by here in Marshall. This past weekend I visited Raymond, MN with my SweetMate, Katie Kienitz. With harvest in full swing down here in southwest Minnesota, her dad was busy combining corn fields around the farm but still had one standing for us to get a few pictures in. We visited the farm and went to a high school football game. We made it back in time on Saturday to watch number four SMSU volleyball defeat number three UMD in a three game sweep! Monday night we went down to the Marshall 6 movie theater for student night, discounted tickets for $6.00, and watched, “Trouble with a Curve,” starring Clint Eastwood. If you haven’t seen it yet, I highly recommend you watching it.

 Homecoming kicked off on Wednesday with a faculty and staff lunch held in the Alumni Plaza. The final royalty was announced as well. Around campus, clubs, organizations, and students are preparing for Homecoming. There are many planned activities for students to participate in. Move it Like a Mustang, Mustang Karaoke Idol, and a Hypnotist, to name a few. Residential Halls are busy decorating their lobbies to show their Mustang Spirit as well as faculty and staff decorating their doors. I can speak for most students and say that we are looking forward to all of the fun events that will take place on campus and can’t wait to watch some Mustang volleyball and football!

As for me, classes are going strong and I have already had a few tests under my belt as well. The leaves are changing and fall is finally here. My favorite time of the year and what a beautiful place to watch it all happen here in Marshall, MN; My home away from home!

Thanks guys! Until next time Go Mustangs, and Go Pack Go!:) (Despite what happened last week!)
