The resurgence of the Communication Club at USCB

5
​Mr. President

Over the course of the last month, myself and a few other students in the Communication Studies major at USCB have attempted to revive the Communication Club at USCB. The four of us began with a couple of meetings about what we envisioned the club's mission and functions to be. Dr. Sawyer has agreed to be our faculty sponsor and she has been helping us find our way in getting the club started again, since we are having to figure most of it out as we go along. I found myself in the role of club president when we decided to select officer positions, and I have thoroughly enjoyed the process.

Having the opportunity to head up a team with the goal of reviving an organization and then running that organization is something that I have found myself to not only be good at but also enjoy. We have now had several meetings and during each one I have been tasked with running the meeting, dictating the flow of the conversations and the direction that we are taking the club. I think the most exciting part of the opportunity to be club president is the opportunity that I have to leave a lasting legacy at USCB. This legacy hopefully will be an organization that is connected in the surrounding community, as well as bringing the students of USCB together in the context of communications, leadership, and servitude.

I am looking forward to the challenges that await next semester with continuing to head this organization. With great power comes great responsibility, or so says Uncle Ben in the Spiderman series. I believe that this is absolutely true, and what little powerIi do have over this organization I would like to use to better the student body and the relationships that the students and the community form.

Til next time.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
