Why It Is Important To Be An Involved College Student

Being involved on campus can benefit you in many ways. You will build a relationship with so many professors and classmates. This is very important because you never know when you will need them to help in your future. Also, some of your classmates could be your fellow coworkers one day.

It is always important to have the best attitude and builds these relationships. I have met so many nice people since I started college, and I could not be more thankful. College is a very important part of your life because you're setting your whole future and career job.

It is also very important you always show up to class and on time. Professors can play a big part in your future. When you get in your classes for your major, that professor might be the one to write you a recommendation for a job. It is important to show them you are responsible and that you can come to class and make good grades.

This is a huge part because you do not want your professor to think that you cannot handle a job. You can always maintain a good relationship with them but also communicating in class. This will show the professor that you are actually paying attention.

At every college, there are so many clubs and organizations to get involved in. This is very important because it gives you an opportunity to meet more people. Involvement in these clubs helps students link their academic and experience with other students.

Being around other students like yourself can help you have a better understanding of the campus and their experiences. I have loved being involved in the clubs that I am apart of. I have gained so many friends and learn so many things. If you ever have the chance to join a club I would. I do not regret it at all and I will continue to participate in these clubs until I graduate.

Campus jobs are also are really good thing available to students to get involved. Every college student needs a job so why not work at the school you got to? I have really enjoyed my campus job. It has given me so many more opportunities.

I am a peer mentor where I go to class with other students that need a little more help. I love every minute of it. It actually benefits me because I get to gain more knowledge by getting to go to their classes. I have met so many friends that I work with and the sweetest students. I could not be more thankful for all the opportunities I have got to participate in since I started college. None of it would have been made possible if I had not simply gotten involved on campus.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
