A Message From Christopher
As we wrap up what always feels like the longest month of the year (it literally feels 70 years long), we can finally see the light at the end of the winter tunnel. January, with its post-holiday slump and chilly mornings, seems to stretch on endlessly, making each week feel like a month of its own. The excitement of a new year quickly meets the reality of early mornings, packed schedules, and the slow crawl toward warmer days. But despite its length, January also gives us the perfect chance to set the tone for the rest of the year, lay the groundwork for our goals, and reconnect with our chapters after the break.
Now, as we move into February, there’s an undeniable sense of momentum. We’ve shaken off the sluggish start and are hitting our stride—whether that’s through continued recruitment efforts, philanthropy events, or just finding a balance between academics and social life. Each passing day brings us closer to spring, and with it, a renewed energy that comes from longer days, warmer weather, and the excitement of upcoming campus traditions. This is the perfect time to refocus on our commitments, check in with each other, and make sure we’re not just enduring the quarter, but embracing it.
Before we know it, the signs of spring will be everywhere—flowers blooming, outdoor gatherings, and the buzz of campus coming alive in new ways. So, as we push through these final winter weeks, let’s lean into the camaraderie that makes our FSL community so strong. Whether it’s supporting a sibling, getting involved in a new initiative, or simply looking forward to the next big event, the best days of the quarter are just ahead. Hang in there—spring is on its way!
