That's right! We all get to enjoy a lovely 3 day weekend all thanks to Labor Day! Looks like the rain is holding out for the most part, so we are lucky for that! I hope those of you who were affected by the storm last weekend, were able to recover and enjoy this weekend.President Obama set out to visit the devastation in Paterson today and the surrounding areas. The news broke my heart this past week to watch, but he is going to do his best to help those in need.
Some good news for us Berkeley students though, only 2 more weeks until we wrap up the Summer quarter and for me, only 2 more weeks until I am college free! I have been on my job hunt so I am hoping to come across something soon! In the meantime, I have just been staying on top of all my work and finishing up with the end of quarter papers and projects.
I didn't get the opportunity to intern last week due to Hurricane Irene, so I am looking forward to getting back into the swing of things this upcoming week and next before I make my departure from there. I've definitely learned a lot in my internship and I am so thankful I was given the opportunity to intern before graduation. There are some schools who don't require an internship, but I honestly think it's such a great thing to offer students before they graduate. It will allow them the opportunity to enhance their skills and also allows for them to learn how to apply their given and learned skills to a real position. This is a great thing Berkeley offers and when it comes time to find an internship, the career services staff is more than willing to help you out!
As we wind down these next two weeks, watch out for the faculty evaluations that will be coming around whether you're an online student or on campus student. As an online student, we fill out our evaluations right within our course. I haven't been on campus in a few months, so I am not sure how much the evaluation process has changed there. It's important to fill out these evaluations so your professors know where they need to make improvements, if you can suggest any at all. They don't take your feedback as criticism because it allows them to better plan for the next quarter.
Since you know the end is near, don't start dragging those feel. Just keep up with everything, and finish out on the best note! Finals are also quickly approaching so just remember the ASC (Academic Support Center) is always there if you need some assistance!
GOOD LUCK & Enjoy your Labor Day Weekend!
