An opportunity to use your freedom of speech

In the wake of the new segment I had made with the help of good friends; my associates and I have concluded that we want to make another segment to go along with the one we have already made.

We made UTSA Speaks (our first installment) with the intentions of allowing students on campus to use their freedom of speech by answering some politically fueled questions. The idea for this is great for the community of UTSA but we noticed one little flaw. The niche of UTSA Speaks helped us in a way that people now know what we are doing and those interested in politics and society can seek us out; in doing so we gave ourselves limitations. We limited ourselves to just those sort of questions and just a specific audience. We do not necessarily want that. We also wish to seek broader subjects and audiences.

So to fix this minor causality, we came up with an entire new segment. To clarify, UTSA Speaks is still going to have more episodes, we are just simply making something else to go along with it.

This time around the questions are going to be more culturally based and less political. We want students' opinions on lifestyles, trends, etc. This time around I'll be behind the camera working the shots and my friend and associate Delano will be the face of this segment.

I now present you with wordsofdelano, a platform in the form of a segment that allows students on campus to use their freedom of speech by answering questions based on this generation's culture. We will most likely be dong this on Monday's just UTSA Speaks. So come on out there to UTSA main campus and check us out. Look for the group of people smiling and laughing with a camera and sign that says "Questions" on it. We look forward to meeting you.

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.
