Alas, the day has finally arrived for me to write my final blog. For the past few days I have stared at a blank sheet of paper wondering what insightful thoughts I could share with those who are reading this post. The time that I have been at UW-Stevens Point and the various experiences that […]
More...Ode to final exams
To the master of procrastination, Telling great tales of justification, For exactly why we waited so long… To study for the final exam, The one we put off all semester to cram, Even though we know its force will be strong.

Thanks to the efforts of University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point students, a young athlete with Cerebral Palsy will be able to participate in a half-Ironman competition this summer.

As a campus ambassador (or tour guide) for the past few years for UW-Stevens Point, I often get the questions, “Is there anything you regret not doing while being a college student?” When I was first asked this question, I will admit that I was stumped, so I turned to my classmates and friends for […]
More...Positive Power
I’ve had a few good discussions over the last few weeks about negativity–the concept itself, people that seem consumed by it, and how it affects us individually and our relationships with other people.
