I know it isn’t Christmas, but here is a perfect example of
the heart of JMU
I have fond memories of the food, yes, the food. It was amazing! The flowers and landscaping have garnered
many institutional awards for good reason.
Walking to class along blossom lined streets in the spring fills your
heart. Having doors opened and strangers
saying hello at every turn, makes one feel welcomed – and loved. Bluestones and the Blue Ridge give you the
sense of a strong foundation.
My van proudly takes Duke Dog with us everywhere and
proclaims my love on my license plate.
One glimpse of purple forges an instant connection – even with an author, a fellow alum, you’ve never met before.
I struggle fully share the depth of sentiment and passion I
have for JMU so I’ll let the words of my Alma Mater speak for me.
Madison, James
Madison, We’ll be forever true.
Our loyalty will
always be to JMU
While friends remain
within our hearts
And knowledge guides
our way
James Madison will
lead us on
To conquer each new
day
I’ll leave you with a little ah-mazing music from the pride
of JMU - The Marching Royal Dukes. Enjoy!
Tell me why you love
your Alma Mater? Give them a little love
by leaving their name while you’re at it.
No hatin’ here.
Saw your tweet to @JMU - I feel the same way! I was at Glennon's book signing as well. Nice to know a fellow Duke and Momastery fan!
ReplyDeleteI think it was your business card that I was referring to as the glimpse of purple. The girl in line in front of me had also gone to JMU. Small world, unless you're in NoVa. I knew of a Jeff with the same last name that did alumni work. :) GO DUKES!
