The month of May seemed a long ways off when I first came to Sinclair Community College last summer. I knew I only had two semesters to finish until I had my degree in Communication Arts, but I did not expect it to be this tedious.<\/p>\n
I graduated high school in June 2010 with a year of college classes already under my belt from Clark State Community College. Right after, I attended Wright State University to study Athletic Training\/Pre-Physical Therapy, which I found was not my calling. I did well in all of the science classes, but I knew early on that was not what I wanted to do with the rest of my life.<\/p>\n
This was during the good days of quarters, how I really do miss quarters. The following fall quarter, I switched my major and took my first Communication class, public speaking. I knew then that I had found my niche, but I was not happy at the school. After finishing fall quarter 2011, I took two quarters off, or the equivalent of one semester.<\/p>\n
I honestly could not tell you what brought me to Sinclair, but I am very happy I came. Here, I learned more about my field of study, gained great relationships with some amazing professors and students, and found a new passion within my writing while working for the Clarion. I survived the Communication Capstone that was the bane of my existence the entire spring semester and came out victorious, in a sense. I say finishing with a 3.3 GPA and being accepted to St. John\u2019s University in New York into their Radio-TV-Film program is non-too shabby.<\/p>\n
May 5 was only the first milestone to meet.<\/p>\n
Graduating from Sinclair is something I am definitely proud of, and I\u2019ll be more than eager to share my experiences once I move to New York. It took three years to get this far and I feel better prepared for the rest of the journey, thanks to Sinclair.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
