“It was one of those March days when the sun shines hot and the wind blows cold: when it is summer in the light, and winter in the shade,” wrote Charles Dickens in
Great Expectations.
Yes, we saw exactly what Dickens meant as March 2021 came in cold, became warm, and departed with some chill winds (all in all, a benign month, weather-wise).
But whatever the weather, our forward-looking faculty, students, and staff took it in stride, as you’ll notice in these campus scenes from This Month at Bates.
