Diverse herds of students saunter
down a wide path between two rows of academic buildings. The pace of each
student differs and his/her destination is unknown, but Academic Row is a place
of constant transit. In the midst of all this movement, some students pause to
socialize, some momentarily forgetting about the woes of classes and others
discussing the potential outcomes of the tests they just trudged through in a
nearby lecture hall. As students pass peers they are familiar with, a friendly
hello or wave is exchanged as these groups of students traverse the central hub
of the campus’ academic realm. Though not a place conducive to lengthy
interaction, Academic Row is a pleasant, scenic space where friends can trade
short stories, swap encouraging smiles and take deep breaths of fresh air
between classes.

I like your description of academic row and the imagery you use. It makes the depiction really come to life and sound familiar. It's a perfect social place.
ReplyDeleteI love your colorful drawing for one, but you have pegged academic row perfectly. I that time people watching from behind the glass pays off. Great descriptions!
