college coursework or a fun escape from campus.” The ideal time to go to the museum is Sundays, when the museum accepts donations and allows visitors to pay what they will for entry. You could spend the whole day there for $3 if you wanted. “It’s definitely the coolest place in Philly,” Matt Caso, a senior philosophy major, said. The Art Museum is so much more than a pretty building with paintings. It’s more than the place where Rocky ran up the steps. Because when you’re within its walls and taking in the centuries old artifacts and practically inhaling the scent of culture that transcends the ages- you become apart of the museum. “It’s a great place to go to be inspired,” Corinne Szymczak, a junior English and secondary education major, said. It’s where I go, anyway. Loquitur welcomes your comments on this story. Please send your comments to: Loquitur@googlegroups.com.

Halloween is every child’s dream-one night to stay out late, dress up and have all the candy you want. Some people carry on this tradition until they have children of their own but this is not always the case at Cabrini College. “Your traditions change when your environment changes,” Kara Schneider, sophomore English and communication major, said. “I still try to dress u p every year, but it gets hard w h e n you’re away from home.” Many students try to continue their family traditions of going to an orchard to pick pumpkins and apples, carving pumpkins, going on a hayride and decorating their houses or dorm rooms. “My family used to pick and carve pumpkins every year and my mom would cook the pumpkin seeds,” Phil Nicolo, senior sociology and criminal justice major, said. Younger siblings always help college students keep up their old traditions. Corinne Szymczak, junior English secondary education major, takes her little sister out trick-or-treating every year.
