Trouble in The Historic District? What IS going on at Salem College?

I have been seriously re-evaluating whether or not Salem College is where I need to be. I love the campus – it’s beautiful and peaceful. I love the small class size. I love that I feel like “the cool mom” on campus – since I’m a day student, I’m more in contact [...]
