The sound of fiddles and flutes fill the conference rooms in upstairs Lakeside as the Elon Irish Dance Team begins its weekly practice. The team is a small but close knit community made up of people from all ranges and skill levels. Some members, like senior and co-president Sarah Dawkins, have been dancing since as early as 3 years old, while others like freshman Trudie Arling, have never done Irish dance before. The uniqueness of the sport has created a strong sense of community within the club that provides an outlet for its members.
As undergraduate students hurried to their morning finals and packed up to head off to break, the Elon Law class of 2024 was savoring their final moments before officially receiving their Jurisprudence Doctorate during the commencement ceremony for the class of 2024 on Dec. 13 in Alumni Gym. Student commencement speaker, Robert Retic, said not only was his class ready for the next chapter, but they are on the road to change the entire industry with their work with everything they have learned at Elon Law.
