January musings

Well everyone, time has sure flown by this quarter and school is almost at mid-terms already. We've endured some brutal, freezing cold, but the weather will brighten up and start to get warmer in February. So keep your chin up and keep plugging along. I know it's been hard at times, but things do get better.

I've been an ambassador now for almost six quarters - started in my second quarter during my bachelor's program and it has been a great experience. I've had the opportunity to meet some pretty great people and work with them, as well as some awesome students. I'd also like to mirror what another ambassador said this month: If you have the opportunity to become an ambassador, do it - its a worthwhile experience with lots of challenges and rewards. I also want to take a moment and talk about school programs. Sullivan offers some great programs for its students and they're all worth participating in. There's the Student Veterans of America, the Student Activities Committee (which is similar to the student council everyone had in their high school), Phi Beta Lambda (one of our fraternities), the Drama and Writing Club, and the newly formed Movie Club. Meeting times are posted near the cafeteria and the hallway and each group has something special to offer students. An added advantage of being in them is they also carry over to your resume and give you additional skills employers are looking for.  Hope to see you at some of the meetings!
