I did not have a straightforward, traditional college experience, but it was abundantly rewarding and I wouldn’t change a thing.
In my academic wanderings, the University has truly fostered a sense of civic duty, and a thirst for knowledge and empowerment for myself and my fellow humans.
I dove into The BG News thanks to campus fest, two falls ago, beginning as a copy writer and serving as Forum Editor this year. I’ve performed and enjoyed performances at every venue, the Wolfe, the CMA’s Bryan and Kobacker halls, 419, the Union, etc. The campus updates facilitated my attendance to countless academic and civic engagement talks and panels, as well as group meetings.
On those groups, work truly is being done at Bowling Green State University. I feel humbled by all the hardworking grass roots, student founded organizations and their unflinching vision to make the world a better place.
My advice to you is to also wander. If you feel like nothing is going on, I promise you you’re wrong. There are a million things that want you; your mind, your hands, your visions, your passions. You have something to offer and the University is dedicated to matching you, your talents and passions with where they are needed.
