Bagel Tuesday Kick-Off

A bag of bagels.
It was a familiar and welcome sight: three brown paper grocery bags full of bagels, plastic containers of cream cheese, a cluster of people around a table in the graduate student lounge. Not to mention the smell of toasted and (occasionally) burnt bagels that so permeates the fourth floor of Denney Hall on Tuesdays during the school year.

"Bagel Tuesday," an English Department faculty, staff, and graduate student tradition, kicked off for the new school year on Tuesday, September 25. The weekly event, which was in jeopardy this time last year due to funding changes, was generously saved by faculty and staff, whose donations keep the tradition alive. This year will feature healthier options, too, with a lecturer and faculty member funding Ohio apples and other fresh fruit, to be available on select Tuesdays.

The free bagels are a highlight of the week in the English Department. Many would agree with Erin McCarthy, a Ph.D. student in Renaissance: "[Bagel Tuesday] makes it easier to get up early on Tuesdays."
