Junior... yup, I'm a Junior now... it sounds so weird to say it! I am beginning the bulk of my Mechanical Engineering curriculum from now on.
First, let me talk a little about my life outside of academia.
I am a peer mentor here (information about the program can be found at http://www.stevens.edu/provost/academics/undergraduate/asc/mentor.html ). Basically, my role is to help ease the transition for the freshmen into college. I emailed them over the summer and actually got to meet them all face to face recently. I tried my best to give them tips to succeed and answer any questions they may have had.
FIELD HOCKEY! After a hot preseason, the regular season has begun. We've been working hard and hope that it shows during our games. Currently, we're 2-0 on the season and hope to keep trucking along like we have been. Last season was a very successful one and we are hoping to repeat it this season. Read up more about the team at http://www.stevensducks.com/sports/fhockey/SeasonPreview.asp .
Lore-El. Like I have mentioned in my previous posts, I am living in the Lore-El Center this year. Located on frat row (aka Castle Point Terrace), it is the housing for the Women's Resource Center. We have already begun brainstorming and planning for the women's events for this semester! It should be a good one!
ON TO SCHOOL...
This semester is the first where the majority of my classes are geared towards Mechanical Engineering. We're only a week in but I can already tell you that it's going to be a challenging yet fulfilling semester. The classes are difficult but the material seems to be classes I am going to really enjoy (which I am glad is the case or else I'd be worried about my choice in major!).
