"Living at a university can be weird sometimes. To commence means 'to begin' everywhere else but here it seems to mean to end since commencement comes at the end of their semester. The students seem more stressed and high-strung as the end draws near, but then when it happens they get all excited and their parents and friends all come to take pictures of them and give flowers and balloons. Actually, right after commencement is the beginning of a week where we squirrels pretty much get the run of campus, so maybe that's what it means. That's so nice of them to think of us like that."
