Freshman Year

• Maintain my 4.00 GPA. I came into college with a 4.00 GPA from dual enrollment, and I believe that it is a possibility for me to keep it. 

  • In May, I can confidently say that my 4.00 has remained safe for another semester!

• Develop myself as an individual. Starting college has felt like a whirlwind, and I look forward to exploring new experiences and growing into myself as a person. 

  • In May, I am happy to say that taking a chance on a college six hours away from home is the best decision I have ever made. I have found passions in public relations and photography all while learning about life. Academically, I have learned more than I thought I would in my first year. In my personal, I have seen how much I have matured over the past year, and I am incredibly proud of myself. 

Sophomore Year

• Become more settled in to my own major. This year, I am finally finished with my core major classes. As I take more major/concentration-specific electives, I look forward to getting to know my professors better and make more connections. 

  • In April, I think it is safe to say that I have found a home in my own major. I love my concentration specific courses SO MUCH and I have connected well with a lot of my professors. A lot of really exciting opportunities are on the horizon at the moment!

• Finish out my USP courses strong. I'm in the home stretch of my Scholars courses, it is my goal to make an A in every class. 

  • In April, I am almost done with them! I will update in May once I have my final grades. 

• Focus on professional development. How will I use or apply the knowledge I am learning in my major-specific classes? 

  • In April, I think I am doing a good job of this so far! I found out today that I am being interviewed for a "workship" that would allow me to apply the information I have been learning about. I also got a job that is directly in my field and I am currently gaining hands on experience in radio. Things are great!
