Alcohol

Why do college students feel the need to drink?

There are three main reasons why I think colleges students feel the need to drink.

1. Others are doing it, whether it's friends, teammates, or random people at a party.
2. Like the feeling of being buzzed/drunk. Some might say it makes them more socialable or gives them "liquid confidence".
3. Depression

Mountain Day

Mountain Day is something that makes Lees-McRae unique. It is a celebration of our heritage and surrounding enviroment. It's important that Lees-McRae continues doing this and keeping the tradition alive because we are a college surrounded by the mountains and there is a lot of history behind them. Mountain Day is also fun because it's a great way to bring everyone together as one and share something special. Meeting new people, enjoying great food, and taking part in some fun activities is just slice of the pie on Mountain Day.

Below you will find a picture of myself and a very good friend, Daniel Ives, after a morning jog up one of the many mountains here at Lees-McRae.
