TROY, Ala. (TROJANVISION) — Campus has come back to life as a new fall semester begins.

What was once a quiet campus over the summer is now buzzing with freshmen finding their classes and upperclassmen reuniting with friends.

“I love the hustle and bustle,” said Jacob Friedman, a senior at Troy University. “I’m always here, even in the summer when it’s dead, and then boom then next day everyone is here.”

With the new semester comes one of the most anticipated traditions at Troy: football season. Excitement for the new season can be easily found.

“I’m looking forward to some football games,” said freshman Charles Longmire.

“Everything is always better with a group of your closest friends,” Kazani Snell, a senior at Troy University, said. “Having that nice knit group of friends, and sharing the little moments, like football games, is peak.”

From the quad to the classroom one this is for certain, the Trojan Spirit is alive and well.
