Hey guys! The rush of the semester is in full force and it seems like it has been since day one about a month ago! I wonder if your schedule is as packed as mine! I ended up adding another course and am up to 18 credit hours again! It is a course I need to have fulfilled by the time I graduate next spring.  I am also working here on campus part-time and at another job part-time, but nobody ever said life as a college student is easy! While it may be more stress now, I just look at it as though it will be less stress later!

I can't believe we are already in the middle of February. I have been so thrown off not only because this month goes by so fast with the less amount of days, but also just because of how busy I've been! I literally woke up this morning and for some strange reason, thought it was Sunday or Monday!

There is always some time to have fun, though! I recently started getting back into the sport of hockey. It is really a good sport to hold yourself over with until the NFL season starts if you are like me and are a football fan. I also enjoy a lot of quality time with my fiancee.

I hope that the semester is continually going well for you and that you find yourself continually enjoying the Regent Life!

Until next time...

Greetings fellow Regents and soon-to-be Regents! Long time no talk! Is it just me, or has this semester seemed to go by as fast as time can possibly fly? The weather has begun to get nice again and we only have about five weeks left until final exams! Hang in there, it will be worth it in the end. If you still find yourself getting burned out, just go outside and get a brief whiff of fresh air!

With the spring season blooming around us, it means that baseball is back in action! The Regents men’s baseball and women’s softball teams both have great expectations for this season and will be frequently playing on campus throughout the rest of the semester. So be sure to catch some of their action when you get a chance!

As the outdoors are becoming much more suitable, now is a great time to get involved in the community as well! As always, the JACCE has been following our most famous alum, Jane Addams’, model in positively impacting the lives of others. If you are interested, keep an eye out for one of the JACCE’s Service Thursdays as the series provides a wonderful opportunity to play the role of Jane Addams throughout the area and in many different ways!

I wish you success and happiness as the semester is nearing its end! Keep it all going!

Until next time…
