Discovering Groundhogs in Pittsburgh...

The Epsilon Omega chapter at Washington & Jefferson
October 27 - October 31

Welcome to W & J! I actually got to enjoy snowfall during my visit, but it was nearly all melted by the very next day.

Outside the guest room that I stayed in at the facility!

The Epsilon Omega chapter facility!

I just loved this amazing view...

Here's a glimpse of campus, which is not very big at all!

This is the president of W & J's home... She lives right off campus!

This is the Admission House, which is known among students to be extremely haunted!

This is the entrance of another haunted building on campus - this is where the president's office is located. During my visit, ghost hunters were on campus and chose to explore this building. I did not have the guts to go, but some of the chapter women went and shared some of the stories from their experience with me and it sounded pretty convincing. I was scared enough just taking this picture in pure daylight... No ghost hunting for me!

The Alpha chapter of Phi Kappa Psi is at W & J... So this one's for my Dad!

This is the Phi Psi fountain located on campus as a tribute to the Fraternity's founders.

And here I am hanging out with Washington and Jefferson! The college actually has a really neat story... Washington and Jefferson used to be two separate campuses that were adamant rivals, but decreased enrollment due to the Civil War forced the two campuses to be combined. It has been W&J ever since.

My most interesting fun fact from this visit was that I got to see my FIRST groundhog! Nothing says "I'm from California," like getting freakishly excited over a groundhog.

I'm headed to another visit in Pennsylvania, so I get to stay on the same time zone for a whole week - what a leisure!

For now, love from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania...
