A Spring Break at Oxford
(03/24/16 5:25am)
Well, Recess readers, since I have the privilege of writing the post-Spring Break editor’s note, I feel obligated to write—at least a little bit—about my own Spring Break. Unlike the masses of Duke students who frequented beach locations (every second I forget about this, my Facebook newsfeed reminds me of it), I did what I call the alternative Spring Break: I spent the week in Oxford doing research for my thesis. Now while my tone is a bit whiny, this was actually probably the ideal way I could’ve spent my spring break. Full disclosure—I love spending days in the library, I love doing research and I love getting to read for fun and then write about it. Plus, if you’ve ever been to Oxford, it’s the most beautiful place ever.
