While you may or may not be excited to be back on campus, lucky for you, you have every reason to be pumped about this semester’s Swat Visually. In the words of Olivia Newton John,

To kick off the semester, our first post will be about getting off campus. For a campus so dedicated to knowledge, our knowledge of what’s happening off-campus can be sometimes shocking. So Swat Visually is going to explore what kind of news Swatties are reading, where they’re getting it from, and how often.

Can’t wait to get visual with you,
