You love campus. You procrastinated. Never fear. Love, Providence College style by Frank Caliva ’04 and Lauren Wholley ’04 As Valentine’s Day creeps up on us like a thief in the night, the need to come up with the perfect date plan becomes increasingly necessary. Your friends have all made arrangements — a romantic dinner for two at Cappricio’s, a moonlit gondola ride on the Providence River, or maybe even a trip to Boston or some other exotic location. But you — who believes that Valentine’s Day is actually a conspiracy of the greeting card industry to pick up lackluster sales between Christmas and Easter — you decided to procrastinate, and now as crunch time fast approaches, you’re in desperate need of some good ideas. Once again. The Cowl has come to the rescue. We’ll make sure your honey will never know that you haven’t been planning this special day for months. We won’t tell — it’ll be our little secret. Flowers — With roses at a premium this time of year, you can expect to pay upwards of 60 bucks a dozen.
