I can&#8217;t believe how fast everything has gone by! I feel like we all just moved in and had our Welcome Week of introducing our biggest freshman class to the best campus ever.<\/p>\n<p>This week has consisted of school and Geneva Stunts. As an education major, I have to be out and about in different schools, helping teach and also observing different teachers, their styles, and thinking of how I will relate it to my school someday. Geneva Stunts is a really fun tradition that has been around at Butler for a long time&#8211;I think more than 90 years! The theme this year is BU Comics: With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility. All the fraternities and sororities are paired together (along with all the housing units!) and they put on a ten minute skit about whatever the theme is, which includes dancing, acting and singing. I have done it all three yeas while at BU, and it&#8217;s so much fun! I decided to take charge this year for my house along with a good friend of mine in my sorority house named Ashley. We wrote the script, the songs, and have started the practices. The final performance will be this Saturday night at 7 p.m.&#8211;when all the families are here for Family Weekend!<\/p>\n<p>There is so much to do at Butler, and it has been a hectic semester. I wouldn&#8217;t want it any other way though; I love all the opportunities to be involved, and all the leadership opportunities I have gotten because of Butler. Although these next couple weeks seem unbearable, I&#8217;m keeping a positive attitude, and hoping to win Geneva Stunts and have a greta visit with my family this weekend! And do some homework sometime, too.<\/p>\n<p>By Abby McClure<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The first week of November is here and it is busy!
