There were so many great friends there. It was so great to see them. The thing that hit me the most was that when we went on a tour of the dorms...they smelled the same. The suites, and especially the kitchen. It was nice to know that we did not stink it up when we were there, it was just part of the building. Somehow it felt as though we just came back from break, but all of us had new lives, that didn't break our connection to each other or the college.
When I was a student and Founders weekend came along it was so overwhelming all these women coming back, telling stories of when they were at Cottey. It really felt like I was a part of this very very special group of women, and I was so proud! That feeling was present at this Founders as well. As I saw the classes that came after me, I hoped that they felt it too. I don't think you need to spend much time at Cottey to know how special place it is.
All the ingredients are there; The PEO support, the location, the spirit all make this unique college what it is. I wouldn't have had it any other way.
The weekend flew by. I took my Time-Laps camera and made a video of the weekend. I like to think I captured the time passing quite accurately.
