On Friday, the College of Liberals Arts welcomed the class of 2016 to Temple University at the Freshman Convocation assembly. More than 600 incoming freshmen gathered to hear words of encouragement, advice and wisdom from Dean Teresa Scott Soufas, Vice Dean for Academic Affairs Jayne Drake, and fellow CLA students.
Two outstanding CLA students addressed the freshmen. D’Juan Lyons, a senior majoring in Spanish Linguistics, emphasized the importance of taking advantage of resources and opportunities here at Temple University. He challenged fellow classmates to avoid shortcuts and to go forth on their new journey “wholeheartedly and with full force.” Speaking from experience, political science major Grace Osa-Edoh shared three powerful lessons with CLA freshmen. Grace encouraged her classmates to “take it one step at a time, be ready to adapt to move forward, and ask for help along the way.”
The College of Liberal Arts wishes all of its students continued success. As Vice Dean Jayne Drake said, “enjoy and embrace your time here at Temple University."

A unique opportunity is presented to our friends - on our blog and site pages we offer a full preview of short stories that are part of the book that is going to be published in hardcopy and as an e-book during this year. If you love to read, and you love crystals and gemstones, understand and feel that extraordinary power that they possess, you shouldn't miss it.
The tale we link this post to is a creative work of RubyCharm author and friend Wolfgang Whael. It is about one famous myth from Roman ages, a folk tale seen from a slightly different perspective - one that involves a unique attribute of stone we know as Agate. The story is called: Light of Agate.
This story will excite, sadden and rejoice you in a glimpse of an eye. It will tell you about how the energy of the Universe gathered in stones may have influenced two different beings. It will teach us how light of Agate can help us understand true nature of souls around us, so we never miss out on true happiness. But there is no more time to wait - come and see for yourself.
All you have to do is to follow one of these links:
Here to read the story on our site,

Connor Wood reads during the Uncanny Senior Symposium for Literature Majors was held in the Old Main Lincoln Room on Thursday, Feb. 27, 2020.
Your scaled beauty was my only fault
And when I saw you I could only think
Of holding you, scraping off the salt
From your lean body, restoring the pink.
And as I tried to reach you, with a stroke
You swam away, but you were well assured
That I was after you. You would provoke
My fierce reaction, and my lust endured.
I reached you in the fountain, near the sea.
I tried to grab you, but you turned to vapour,
And I decided - in my fantasy -
To turn to water to became the raper.
Arethusa, my lover, is this my hand or yours?
Liquid we are in water, stretching to reach the shores.
(Sonnet by SiRiChandra)
I discovered that a guy called Percy B. Shelley wrote something about Alpheus and Arethusa too! Check it out
Oh to live burning, and not to feel the pain,
To be a rock that rolls and wears no moss,
To be the rust that never sleeps, the main
Role in a cage, in tales of love and loss.
This all I learnt when I was young, and still
I believe in it all, hoping to grow
To be the hero: legend that would fill
The centuries to come in golden flow.
I’ve never grown up, story of my life,
I am the eternal teen who looks so jaded
Watching the grownups in eternal strife
For stuff I judge as boring, futile, faded.
I wait for Captain Walker, he’ll rescue us, he’ll give
Peace to a generation that made the effort to live.
(Sonnet by SiRiChandra)

And when I wanted more, you flew away.
Now, if I want to talk, I find a wall
Concrete around me, knowing that today
Will bring me worries and thoughts I won’t recall.
If I just want to speak, I cannot start
A proper conversation. And I just wait
For you to talk. But we are so apart
That waiting is a spice I taste, like hate.
Recalling the blithe moments of light laughter
I walk the same old tracks we walked back then.
Sometimes I feel the same, but it’s an after
Thought, because I am entangled once again.
“Ev’rything seems to bring…”, too well I knew the lines
My eyes are aged and tired, the mirror sees the signs.
(Sonnet by SiRiChandra)
