I thought this week it would be interesting to see Week 5 from a student\u2019s perspective. So I asked Sarah Symons, our Student Communications and Events Assistant, how she was feeling at this point in the semester. Sarah is a double major in Leadership Studies and Political Science and has worked with us since 2023. Here\u2019s what she had to say\u2026<\/p>\n
The first quarter of the semester has already come to a close! The initial weeks of school were filled with cheerful hellos to friends I hadn\u2019t seen since May, swapping stories from summer jobs and trips. If you\u2019re anything like me, those weeks also involved building a color-coded spreadsheet of every assignment I have this semester. As we enter the second quarter, it\u2019s time to start crossing things off a never-ending to-do list. Papers, presentations, and exams creep closer, and that senior thesis I\u2019ve been thinking about since syllabus day? The first outline is due next week. But while the schoolwork piles up, so do the memories with friends. Anticipation over Parents\u2019 Weekend looms; office hours are frantically scheduled; and coffee becomes a student\u2019s best friend.<\/p>\n
