Calling All Eureka College Students!
Ed Gregory

Hi Eureka College,

Today, I would like to talk to you about Odyssey. Do you know what it is? It's a social media platform where you're able to share your voice, your passion, your opinions, with virtually anyone and everyone. You can write anything from a serious journalistic piece to a lighthearted listicle, a poem, a short story, essentially whatever you feel like you want to write. Another great thing is that it's something to add to your resume!

One thing that I've noticed as I've been writing for Odyssey, is that my quality of writing has improved. I've developed some key skills when it comes to writing, whether it be an article or a listicle. I've also gotten better at proofreading and editing my own work. It's a great way to help you improve your writing skills without having to write a boring paper or do repetitive grammar exercises.

Something else to consider is that it's something fairly light to add to your schedule. As a part of Odyssey, you submit one article (or poem, etc.) a week. That's it. There's no word count. Sounds pretty easy right? It's made even easier because you're getting to write about what you're interested in. Want to rant about politics? Go ahead. Love technology? Give us a listicle of your favorite gadgets or programs! There are endless amounts of things you could write about.

If I've piqued your interest, request to apply here. We're always looking to add diverse perspectives to our community of writers here at Eureka. If you have any questions about Odyssey, I'm more than happy to answer them! I'm sure you can find me...it is Eureka after all.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
