Here it is. It all starts today.
Before Erica Hyatt walks through the door, she is a chemical engineering major. She is a student at the UF. She thinks about homework and grades and meetings for the intramural softball team she is on. But for the hour she is in the room, she forgets all of that. She throws her arms in the air and sways her hips to the blaring music.

Change is afoot in Gainesville right now. All it takes is one look at the Alligator parking lot full of cars crammed with clothes, kitchen utensils and random boxes to know that summer is coming to an end, and everyone is ready to begin anew in his or her freshly leased pads. But, before you get too excited (and crumple up this paper to use as packing material), we would like to present you with an are-there-really-only-two-weeks-until-fall edition of…
