title: The Ross School Blog | Local
description: Local | The Ross School Blog is a window into the tesseractic honeycomb of ideas that permeate the Ross experience, each post a plane in a spiraling fractal pattern. Students, teachers, and staff will be posting on an infinite variety of subjects—history, economics, media, science, art, video games, Bach, cheese, cryptozoology, race car design, the finer points of cat grooming, you name it—and we’ll occasionally dig back into the archives to share timeless treasures. In addition, we’ll keep everyone up to date about the exciting things happening on campus.
