Of Clubs, Committees And Commotion – POR Hunt At B-Schools!

Of Clubs, Committees And Commotion – POR Hunt At B-Schools!

I peer through the window at the pitch-black night. It has started to drizzle, and the city far away has retired for the day. The clock strikes 12 and the campus begins its hustle.
