Course Objective: Developing Professionalism

 One of the English 320 course objectives is to develop professionalism exhibited in such qualities as self-direction, cooperation, civility, reliability, and care in editing and presenting the final product. To me, this means that it is my goal for me to be a professional writer and editor by the end of this course's time frame. It is representing how it is important to be professional in your writing, all while having good qualities that are represented through your writing. 

This objective can be achieved by practicing the use of collaboration in workplace teams on various projects throughout the semester. I believe I have been a diligent student in doing this, as I have completed every single discussion board in the course. Additionally, I have had the drive to give my fellow peers my opinions and edit their works in an effort to better their professionalism as well. By editing my fellow peers' works, I am also gaining my own sense of professionalism and being able to be useful to others around me. Additionally, I am working with other individuals, as a team or group, in an effort to reach the same common goal of completing a paper of some sort by the given deadline. 

After achieving this objective, I believe I will feel a great sense of accomplishment and achievement. I will feel like a much more professional writer and editor for my readers and other fellow peers. These skills will be able to be utilized in my future occupation in business, as it is very important that businessmen and women are very professional in their actions.

Truly Thankful for Scholarships

  As a college student, being financially stable is a struggle with having to pay for everything that comes with college. Some of these college expenses may include food, tuition, books, and living, which vary significantly from semester to semester. I have been fortunate enough to be able to be relieved from some of these ongoing expenses. Through my hometown, state, as well as NDSU itself, I have been able to win multiple scholarships.  I bring up the topic of scholarships because it is something that is on my current to-do list, as well as something I encourage every college student to apply for. In just a few short days, NDSU scholarships are due, which means that I have to reread and perfect all my applications to ensure that I am applying for them to the best of my ability. Many students do not take the opportunity to apply for such applications, as they think it is too much work or too much to think about. However, I have been able to relieve so much financial stress because of

Finishing the Spring Semester Strong

 It's crazy to think how the past year of college has gone by so fast. I started my second year of college here at North Dakota State University just a short time ago. I am nearing the end of my second year and quickly approaching the final weeks before the summer break. Enclosed within these final few weeks are the various last-minute assignments, final exams, and wrapping-up projects that I have spent a significant amount of time on, throughout this past semester.  Despite this past semester going by so quickly, I find it very important to not let time control my work. If I focus on the time and become overwhelmed with rushing to finish the final work that needs to be done, I will not be able to finish my work in a good manner. Finishing my work strong and with great depth is important in my education and my future with the knowledge I am gaining through each of my courses. If I rush the work, I will not be able to remember as much of the information nor be able to do the work to

Progress on My Degree Outlook

As someone who began college unsure of what to do with their future, I have been able to create a deeper foundation for what my future will look like. Recently, I was able to fully declare my plan of study, as I have been able to take classes related to each of my majors, a minor, and numerous certificates that give me an idea of what I would be working with. I was able to declare my double majors in Business Administration and Finance, my minor in Banking, and my certificates in Entrepreneurship, Private Enterprises, and Sales. With each of these additional steps in my academic career, I plan to fulfill a critical business role in the future.  You may be wondering why I chose to have two majors, and on top of that, add a minor. As if that wasn't enough, you may think I am crazy for adding not one, but THREE additional certificates to my study plan. However, I have a love for each of these areas and thoroughly enjoy being able to increase my knowledge in them. My dream has always b
