Sophister (TAMU Edition)

A new term to describe N&D...

Junior: Sophists were ancient Greek intellectuals known for their skill at oratory and persuasive arguments. The term "sophister" continued into university education with third year students called junior sophisters. Gradually, the sophister designation was dropped, and the term shortened to junior.

Juniors, yes. But I'm totally bringin back Sophisters!

Next up, Naomi for her third year at Texas A&M University. (18 hours! 😧)
MAJOR: Multidisciplinary Engineering  -  MINOR: Computer Science
Wired (Women In Robotic Engineering & Development), New Apartment Dweller

Yep, on top of the heavy course load, Naomi has left the safety and convenience of living on campus behind. No more dorm. No more meal plan. No more walking to class.

Welcome to University Trails and apartment life!
Move in day!
Furnished, but still needs LOTS of furnishings.
A summer spent cooking at home is about to pay off! (hopefully)
Bedroom before Naomification
Stocking the essentials. Hooray for HEB and Aldi!
Bedroom Naomified!
And vined
Naomified!
Love the lamps. Already hard at work.

Quinci & Kayla are also making the leap. Lots of fun times and figuring it out ahead! They got this. LET'S GO, ROOMIES!
Toasting to the new (school) year.
Slight wrinkle: Quinci showed up with a bum foot to start the semester, but it doesn't won't stop the fun.
They're taking it in stride. (pun intended!)
