This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Rowan chapter.
Over the last week, students on campus came took a break from cramming for midterms and making their spring scheduled to celebrate homecoming. It is a week in the school year where the bleachers are packed, the energy level is high, and the students are wearing their school colors rather than complaining about them. Rowan is currently home to over ten thousand students, and each one has a different view on what our school means to them. So, as we celebrated the brown and gold profs on Saturday before the football game against Morrisville State College, I asked Rowan students what Rowan meant to them. And although each student answered differently, each of them had answer full of Prof Pride.Â
