10 Things You Know If You Are a BCA Major
http://departementcamera.tv/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/DEP_Photo_06-optimized.jpg

1. You live in Moore Hall

Moore isn't just a place for classes, it is a place for studying, late night projects, hanging out with friends..etc. Basically, you should have your mail forwarded there. Everything you could possibly need is contained within Moore, and you wouldn't have it any other way.


2. You analyze movies and TV Shows

Watching TV and or Movies isn't the same anymore. You watch reality TV and just know that the producer is telling them what to do. It's a lie. It's all a lie.


3. You still don't really know how to run the TD Board in Anspach

Okay, like, I understand what each button does, but sometimes I click a few buttons at once, and something happens, and somehow we are on camera 3. We were really trying to just get to Camera 1, I swear. Then we will jump around and go across Camera 2, back to Camera 3, then finally land on Camera 1, when the next shot is not Camera 1. It's fine, we all still did pretty well in 220.


4. You say things like:

"I shot that!" "I forgot my adaptor" "I forgot my headphones" "I left my flash drive in the computer again" "My voice sounds weird" "Want to be in my video?"

5. You can write Ad's like nobody's business.

I know how to write a tag line in my sleep. What audience are we catering to? Middle aged women? I've got this.


6. You are kind of sick of Social Media

Like yeah, we all got our personal ones, but after a class of sitting and learning how things are trending, and example after example, it can get repetitive.


7. You get singled out at job fairs, and it's fantastic


You go to Central Michigan? How do you like the program? I've heard it's one of the best in the Midwest! Can I keep this Resume?


8. You get to meet cool people


Connections connections connections. If you've had an internship, worked on MHTV, either of the radio stations, or even on late night projects, you know that sometimes the coolest people, are those that are working on the same things as you.


9. We have some pretty amazing alumni.


News anchors, actors, musicians, Larry Joe Campbell, and hey even Tim Allen, was part of our program for a semester.


10. We are all a big BCA family.

You need an adaptor? I got you. Yeah, you can interview me for a project! I know, I don't get how to put this portfolio together either. What even is this?

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
