Students couldn’t wait for nature to brighten up campus after a long winter. On April 5, hundreds of Terps gathered on McKeldin Mall for Holi, the Hindu festival of colors, to fling multicolored powder at each other. Hosted by the Hindu Students Council for the last two decades, the event draws students of all religions and ethnicities looking to dance, jump in a kiddie pool and celebrate the arrival of spring.
