Ah… senior year. We engineers are especially ready to graduate, since (because we’re in a five year program) many of our peers graduated last year. It doesn’t help matters that most other universities are having their commencement ceremonies now, at the beginning of May, while ours isn’t until June 14th.
However, I need all the time I can get. The end of my senior year is full of “to-do” items like finishing my senior capstone project, planning to move, handing Engineering Ambassadors off to a new group of officers, and participating in the half-million or so events that go on at this time of year– awards and recognition ceremonies, end-of-the-year dinners, and the like. Oh, and apparently I am still in these things called “classes,” which take up a bit of time as well.
I will also be doing my best to make time during the last six weeks to throw a few posts on this blog. As the title indicates, I feel like I am making a very brief appearance here– there’s just enough time to introduce myself, then make my exit! Fortunately, there’s a veritable army of Engineering Ambassadors who are capable of developing this blog into an accurate account of what it’s really like to be an engineering student here at the University of Cincinnati. I’m excited that I’ll be around at least to see it get off the ground!
