That wondrous time when you drop four digits on text books, school fees, and the like; when freshmen roam campus with that lost/scared/excited look on their face; when you check OASIS every hour to see if that class you want has opened up; when you throw everything in the car and make the long (or short) trip back to Athens.
So here's a list of things you can do to make yourself feel better about the coming school year:
- Well, ok, I can't think of anything to make you feel better about how much school fees are, but;
- When you see that terrified freshman, invite them to IC. It's a great way to get involved and meet people.
- All of that time on OASIS? Well, if you're going to spend that mad money on attending here, you may as well take a class you like, right?
- As you pack up to come back to school, remember to bring your totally awesome Invisible Children shirts to look cool and promote the club at the same time.
And if you're still not excited, then just think of all the good you can be doing when you get back up here! The LRA Disarmament Bill is being debated in Congress right now! (By the way, if you wanted to write a letter to your representatives and senators, this would be a great time to do it.) And if you missed Lobby Days, like I did, you can catch up by reading former-fearless-leader Meredith's
blog post from the event. And while you're there, you can read up about what she did in Uganda.
See you soon.
Shalom,
Drew
