I remember the fun, the music and dreams we shared together-
the growth, the tears and fears we felt together,
the lessons, the laughs and the goals we experienced together
this campus showed us how to be grownups, it introduced
us to new friendships meant to last forever. These dormitories housed
our insecurities and allowed us to expand
and prepared us to enter a world
ready for our influence. These classrooms, where we learned
the true study of independence, taught us
both the advantages and nuances
of higher learning.
This campus, just on the outskirts of Amherst,
created situations that earned us the Bachelor degree of life,
a Degree that even years later we look back upon
and reminisce the memories. We didn’t just party
we celebrated – we didn’t just grow,
we developed,
we didn’t just experience — we became ourselves
inside a University where our freedom was given a voice
and through lecture halls where we discovered
the foundation of choice
This campus, will always be home
and will always be a place
where we always belong.
It is a homecoming of our journey’s and the long everlasting
bonds we have created.
