Kate shows you what Carleton looks like in the fall through a series of photos


If you’ve read my bio, you know that I love campus in the fall. I could explain how much I love walking through crunchy leaves on the way to class or how much joy I’m filled with every time I see a fall sunset, but that would be no fun. So instead I thought I would show you what it’s like to be on Carleton’s campus right now.

Sunsets

Fall Clothing!

It’s finally sweater weather!!

Although we get some warmer days

 

Leaves Changing (and beautiful nature)!

The sunshine always looks the prettiest in the arb!

These two photos were taken about 20 feet apart on the Bald Spot!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Preparing for Halloween

A bunch of departments host pumpkin carvings around this time of year!

I’m always prepared for the holidays…

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Spooky Foggy Days

I’m a big fan of foggy mornings!
Rain on a window pane
The rain can be so beautiful too

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Crunchy Leaves

Fall trees on the way to the chapel
This is what my walk to class can look like
fallen leaves on a walk
I love walking through the piles of leaves on my way to class

These are just the photos I’ve taken halfway through the term.  I know these next few weeks will be filled with more sunset and tree photos. If you have the chance to visit Carleton, you should do it now! I promise you won’t be disappointed.

 


Kate (she/her) is a junior History  and Theater double major from the Bay Area, California. She loves Carleton’s artsy community, and is involved in the Vocal Studies Program and occasionally the Experimental Theater Board when her fight choreography skills are in high demand. Kate’s favorite places on campus are the practice rooms, either in Myers or the Weitz, where she can sing or play the ukulele. She loves the campus during all the seasons but thinks nothing could compare to the beautiful colors of Northfield in the fall. When not in class, you can find Kate either petting the nearest cat or forcing her friends to watch bad movies in a study room.
