UC Davis Creator Spotlight Of The Week: Elisabeth McGowan
Elisabeth McGowan

Hello! For those of you who don't know me or haven't seen my work before, I am the Editor in Chief of the Odyssey at UC Davis.

With over 1,200 communities across the nation and more than 14,000 content creators, it’s easy to miss or overlook a creator who is producing great content. As a way to help you make sure you’re not missing one of those creators right here in UC Davis, I plan to highlight someone from time to time that I think is creating exceptional content.

This week, that individual is Elisabeth McGowan.

Have you seen her latest articles? Check it out here.

Elisabeth has creating content for Odyssey since this past August, and she has made herself an incredibly important member of this team. Week after week, she goes above and beyond by publishing multiple articles and harboring an incredible enthusiasm to contribute. She was compelled to join our team after seeing Odyssey articles on her social media feeds, and she realized she wanted to write articles as well. Her consistency with creative content can be seen in her most recent article, "Visiting Your Freshman Dorm." There, she taps into some freshman year nostalgia and reflects on her old home.

She looks forward to using her writing talents to write critiques about theater and the film industry. As a Theatre major, she would love to incorporate what she's learning in the classroom to her writing endeavors during her free time.

Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
