Do you ever feel like you are experiencing everything alone? Frustration with classes? Fear of a professor? Apprehension of the major you are in? I could say that you’re not alone in your experiences…but would you take me seriously?
I didn’t think so…
The fact remains that sophomores experience a lot of similar situations…they just don’t realize it because no one wants to talk about it.
This year…that’s changing, because four brave TCNJ sophomores have volunteered to share their experiences with the rest of their class. Each blogger will post once a month on Mondays-in the post they will share what’s been happening with them…how they’ve been approaching life as a TCNJ sophomore.
Maybe you will be able to see something you have been dealing with and get an idea of how to tackle it without even realizing it!
Today’s post is to introduce the 2011-2012 bloggers and a little bit about what they plan on writing about this year.
Thomas Ciccone is a journalism major and a writer for the Signal. He has ideas to share his experiences on the staff of the Signal as well as his search to find other opportunities to pursue his career aspirations…all while being a student at TCNJ and the adventures that entails.
Rachel Chlebowski is double-majoring in Communication Studies (Radio-TV-Film track) and English, she plans on sharing her experience as a sophomore, as well as discussing books she is reading for my classes as well as outside of class, and also student organizations she is involved with or in the process of becoming more active in
Emaad Iqbal is a biology major and involved with about 1000 different organizations. On top of his academic workload he is also a Community Advisor in New Residence Hall. This year he is going to share his experience as a sophomore in a leadership position and his time management techniques.
Jeni Doughan is an English major minoring in Deaf Studies. Currently, she hopes to pursue a doctorate in Clinical Audiology. She procrastinates best with silly art projects, sidewalk chalk, and magazine collages. and she will be blogging about the “trials and tribulations” of her sophomore year. With all the clubs and classes she has decided to join/take she is hoping she can share advice on all the time management and stress relief tips she tries this year!
Read and enjoy their posts…if you have questions for the blogger please leave a comment and maybe they will answer your questions in their next post!
