College has a way of turning Sunday into Monday’s waiting room.
But maybe that’s missing the point.
Mass. Good food. A walk. A little time away from papers and deadlines. A little room to breathe.
The monks have been doing this for about 1,500 years.
Maybe they’ve figured something out.
And if all else fails, there’s always the Sunday method:
Rest now. Panic Monday.
ROOK is a daily original college newspaper comic about friendship, faith, growing up, and the odd little places where life becomes meaningful. Set in and around Benedictine College and Atchison, ROOK finds the humor in ordinary college life—and occasionally lets something deeper sneak in.
A new ROOK strip appears every day at noon CST.
