Sick of Seventeen and Cosmopolitan magazines? Junior Joanna Buffum, along with the rest of the Her Campus staff, have just added another option to the pool—an online magazine aimed specifically at college females. After working as an intern for a blog, Zagat Buzz, Buffum was hired as a staff writer by Her Campus, an exclusively female and college-oriented online magazine.
Place: Twin Brooks Recreation Area, Cumberland, Maine. Distance from campus: 25 minutes. Date: Saturday, November 14 at 11 a.m. Number of companions: As many as possible. Necessary gear: Sneakers (a pair that you are willing to get muddy) and large amounts of Bowdoin pride. Cost: Free. In fact, you'll be offered cookies and sweets if you come... The leaves have begun to turn from bright oranges to dirty browns, and before we know it, our campus trees will be stripped of all foliage. The ground will soon be frozen sod. The air temperature will cool from invigorating to agonizing. We have to embrace the last days of autumn outdoors, and there is no better place to do it than on the trails of Twin Brooks. Next weekend, these trails will be the site of a competitive cross-country meet—an event that will bring the Northeast together for a performance of physical strength and mental toughness.
