COM 300 As Told By The Office

This class had many ups and downs, and I thought to myself, what better way to explain them than by clips from the Office.

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!

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.
