A Letter To Senior KSU Students
Kennesaw State University Graduation


Dear Fellow KSU Seniors,

Well, here we are! We have made it to the final semester of our undergraduate career. This is the semester the semester where some of us will be taking internships, others will be scouting job fairs to impress future employers, and others of us may just have a class or two to finish up while they have already secured a full time job. Whichever your situation, know that you are almost there!

As seniors, we have watched our university reach so many milestones. Our school merged with Southern Poly, which is now Kennesaw State’s Marietta campus. Our school also put together an incredible football team that has been incredibly successful! Not to mention, the growth of students and the on campus clubs and activities have nearly doubled since we were all measly freshmen.

As for personal growth, I think that if we have made it this far, we have all learned a thing or two on how to prioritize and budget our time. Not only that, but encountered obstacles and challenges that brought to life our strengths, creativity, and resilience. All of the hard work, sleepless nights, and tears have manifested us into educated and slightly more mature adults that are ready for the next chapter of our lives.

So, in taking on this last semester, remember what all we have conquered in our time here at KSU. In remembering that, don’t blow off this semester and let all of your hard work go to waste! We are only three and a half months away from walking across that stage and possibly never having to take another test, write another paper, or complete another group project. Let’s ride it out and make some good memories in the process.

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

April Ludgate, historically, is a very annoyed person, and she doesn't hide it. Of all the times that I binged and re-binged "Parks and Rec," her attitude relates more and more to me.

To The Cheerful Person On Their Rainy Days, You Are Valid

The world is not always sunshine and rainbows, and you do not have to be, either.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.
