Every Friday, local florists come to campus, allowing students to buy flowers for their friends, coworkers, roommates and more! Students can buy each other flowers to express gratitude or just to brighten a friend’s day. During the Spring of 2020, Friday flowers continued on virtually, allowing Carls to feel cared for and connected.
