Ah yes, Com 300. If you have no clue what I am talking about, consider yourself lucky. Just kidding. But Com 300 is essentially the class which filters out students in the communication program at WSU. It is a class where you can fail when you have what could be an A+ paper because you forgot to capitalize a pronoun. But let's be real, odds are you don't have an A+ paper anyways. It is a tough course, but you learn. It is the best possible class we could take as communication students wanting to graduate being prepared for the real world. This class had many ups and downs, and I thought to myself, what better way to explain them than by clips from the Office.
The night before each class
When I realize I forgot my textbooks at home and am not allowed to share with anybody else.
Me looking back at life before this course
After the professor explains how to set up our paragraphs but I am still completely lost
The day I realized what I had gotten myself into (thirty seconds into day one)
When my prof asks the class if we have any questions after lecturing
Me to me after I catch an F error thirty seconds before turning in my paper
Every time I need a reminder that this class does not define me
Anytime I get a grade above a C+
When I got my Personality Profile grade back
When I create a fire lead but nobody cares
Checking even the simplest of names/words trying to avoid an F error
Actual footage of me the day I got my first error (pretty sure it is a rite of passage)
When I got my second F error and things suddenly become very real
Each time I got my grade back and it was not nearly as good as I was expecting
When I would actually slay a quiz
After my friend and I got our first (and most likely last) A-
And the moment I was waiting for all semester... When I found out I actually passed
All jokes aside, I learned a lot and really enjoyed myself. This class has made me a better writer and has given me a new appreciation for journalism. Here is to saying a bittersweet goodbye to Com 300!
