Don’t Hang Up On His EP

Romantic Getaways

What makes a college campus romantic? Is it the beauty of the buildings, the students, the surrounding landscape or some intangible quality some places possess? With Valentine’s Day approaching, the Features staff at the Justice pondered the question of whether Brandeis has a “romantic campus.” Searching for answers, Justice writers Sophie Fulara ’20 and Hannah Shumel ‘20  took to the streets and asked students about the places on campus they find to be romantic. Some students couldn’t name a place at Brandeis that they felt fit the description, so they recommended places in Waltham.  While inconclusive and sprinkled with sarcasm and humor, their answers may give you an idea of where to go on Feb. 14th.                                                                    — Victor Feldman

To realize that we are not alone in our experiences or on this campus. To continue these forms of communication and to hopefully develop new ones.
