After a long summer break, the new school year finally arrived on Tuesday this week. Below, Video and Marketing Specialist CJ Palanca has captured just a few of the joyful and heartwarming moments that marked the first days of Blair’s 177th school year.
On Tuesday, October 8, Dr. Andrew Rudalevige, a government professor at Bowdoin College and honorary professor at the University College, London, will speak to Skeptics students about the evolving role of the presidency in contemporary American politics and the historical forces that have shaped the American government into where it is today.
