Easter Break on the Horizon

After 10 straight weeks of classes since the start of the semester without a break, the University will provide students and faculty with a much-needed mini-vacation for Easter.

There are no classes scheduled for Holy Thursday (April 1), Good Friday (April 2) and Easter Monday (April 5).

Students are looking forward to the break.

“I plan on going home to Pittsburgh to spend the holiday with my family,” said Zach Benedek, a sophomore Communications major. “We usually have Easter dinner at my house and dye eggs together on Good Friday.

“I’m very excited to get to spend time with my family.”

Junior Management major Kyle Craig is also heading home to see his family next week in Haymarket, Virginia.

” I plan to spend time with my family and work out in order to prepare for football,” said Craig.

Senior Communications major Avery Papalia is also headed south for the holiday. The Kernersville, North Carolina, native is looking forward to time with his family and time on the links.

“I will be spending time with family and playing some golf,” said Papalia. “This is the first time I have been home to see my family all semester, so I’m looking forward to it.”

Classes resume on April 6.
