Hawkeyes have just one more day to power through classes. We asked UI students, “What are you most excited about for Thanksgiving break?”

“I am most excited to be with family and to be at home.” Madison Pfaffe UI criminology major

“No more schoolwork and lots of food. Oh, yeah.” Tyler Derr UI enterprise-leadership major

“Going home and sleeping.” Sara Suttin UI international-relations major

“I think the thing that I’m most excited about is going home. I’m from the Chicago area, so I tend to get homesick a little bit.” Gates Daniel UI English and creative-writing major

“To be with my family.” Ashley Clark UI human-physiology major
