Okay, okay.... So, I've glanced at the calendar a FEW times making sure that THIS is the week we go back.... Yes, there's no mistaking August 23rd is in this week.
Could IUPUI push back their start date?!
Probably not. And anyways, who really wants to be in school over the winter holiday? Not me.
So, my "relaxing" summer entailed: work, Accounting and Microeconomics....
[Sighs]
One other important thing I did over the summer was go to Kelley's Orientation for new Fall Admits.
This was a brief orientation that introduced the new Kelley students to some key members of the school. Faculty informed us of the high standards that Kelley holds to its students, which is great because Kelley students can expect a top notch degree when they leave the school. Who wants to have a degree that's not worth the paper it's printed on? Well, Kelley students won't have to worry about that problem.!
The orientation also allowed students to meet others interested in business, sign up for information on business clubs offered thru Kelley and get important tips.
One of the best tips I heard is to use Kelley's Academic Advisors! Which to some seem silly, but if you think about it it's really not so silly. One of the speakers referred to "Self-Service Advising"..... This meaning that students use online guildlines for their majors.... which is okay until they miss a few classes they didn't know they had to take ... This leads them to going to school for one more semester...... Doesn't sound fun to me. I think taking 30 minutes of my time is definitely worth graduating on TIME! And even if you aren't a Kelley student, take the time to see your advisor! It could save a semester!
Well, this is it my friends. Another beautiful beginning to another beautiful school semester.
Good luck to all! :)
