Title:“How did you spend a sunny day on the Hilltop?”

“The lawn in front of Healy Hall! You can see the clock tower above you, but somehow time disappears when you’re there. Lying on that grass, you become like a plant—drawing energy from the sun above and from the ground beneath you. There’s something about that particular patch of earth, the weight of legacy it holds, that roots you to something bigger than yourself. Every Hoya who came before left something in that soil.”

“I loved the koi ponds on campus during my time at Georgetown and I would always point them out to other students as places to relax, reflect, and unwind as they listened to the bubbling pond. One in particular, located at The Heyden Memorial Garden, was particularly special to me because it offers a tranquil retreat from the hustle and bustle of the campus below. You really can’t go wrong with any of the campus koi ponds!”
