When streets are blocked off around GW's campus, students can typically assume that a dignitary - perhaps the President - is visiting.
But on Thursday afternoon, a roped-off H Street was in fact playing host to the University Counseling Center's annual Chalk-In. The event, intended to raise UCC's profile on campus, provided boxes and boxes of chalk for students to draw with. H Street and its accompanying sidewalks were filled with images and writing, from butterflies to shout-outs - even a periodic table - in homage to students' younger years.
The event coincided with other events around campus, including the Program Board's Arts Festival adjacent to H Street in Kogan Plaza and Earth Day celebrations on University Yard. The Arts Festival featured free hotdogs, hamburgers and popcorn, while environmentally-themed organizations like Green GW and GW Trails promoted their organizations at the Earth Day event.
