Lonestar actually knows about Leo!

When I picked the college I wanted to go to, I always had a picture in my head of what it would be like. I always thought people would know exactly what school I was talking about; we could talk about how great their sports teams are, and maybe I would meet someone who knew of another student at my school. Well when I went to Saint Leo University, people stared at me a minute before asking where it was. Yes, it is a small school, but we have great sports teams, and I know few people that know others who have attended or have at least heard of it before. Well, as a member of student involvement and student government, I had a hand in bringing a big musical act to Saint Leo in celebration of our new student community buildings. Myself and the rest of the students involved needed to keep all of the options under wraps for a few weeks; this was really hard for me because I LOVE music, and I’m kind of a blabber mouth when I get too excited. Anyway, the day finally came for LONESTAR… yes Lonestar - to actually come to our little campus. This was a great experience for all the students at Saint Leo, and it will definitely be hard to top that one in the future. There was a lot going on throughout the campus that day, there were baseball games that were highly important to the standings of the team, there was tennis, and a lot of other activities, but there were over 500 people there. It was a great time for everyone that went, and I can go without saying, it was definitely an unforgettable moment of my freshman experience.
