After a man fled a traffic stop, the University was locked down for five hours Feb. 25. And an active attacker with a knife caused another shelter-in-place Feb. 27.

March is a wonderful month at the University, bringing about the early days of spring. It is a time for popping outside and cracking open a book while lazing on the Lawn. It also marks the beginning of Women’s History Month, a time where we highlight the achievements and perspectives of women throughout the decades.

There are no NCAA Division I lacrosse programs in Texas. And there are certainly no Division I lacrosse programs in The Woodlands, Texas.
