Breaking Beard: the best of the ‘Burg


It’s the time of year when we all become extremely grateful. No, we’re not talking about Thanksgiving. We’re talking about No-Shave November. That time of year when the gentlemen in our lives decide to grow a little scruff on their chins (and hopefully nowhere else).

OK, maybe we’re not all grateful. For those of you who have an aversion to beards, we recommend you lock yourself in your house for the entire month. Avoid anything scratchy. Let’s just hope your roommates aren’t participating in the phenomenon.

In honor of this glorious (or horrifying) time of year, we searched campus for some of the best beards. And wow, USF St. Petersburg has some GREAT beards. Here’s what we found.
