It’s crazy to think that I am almost done with my first year of college. It feels like just yesterday I was graduating from high school. After being here for a year, I have made tons of memories, gotten to know lots of people, written many papers, and learned things about myself I never knew.
After [...]

I’ve always heard that you don’t need to know exactly what you want to major in until sophomore or junior year.
But, I was sure I knew even before college. I wanted to be a business major with a minor in youth ministry, or even a double major. First semester started out great! I had only [...]

Here at EMU, there is plenty to do for your sweetheart on Valentines Day.
Take your significant other or friends out to dinner. For me, Red Lobster was the restaurant of choice. Though the wait was rather long, it was worth it. We even saw many other EMU students, including a group of about 15 girls!
Plan [...]

Life at EMU is currently very busy and at sometimes stressful. Right now at EMU:

After a few weeks into a new semester, students are starting to realize that it’s not all fun and games and we actually have to start working.
Pretty much every prof decided to give an exam either this week or in the [...]

The last thing you expect in college is the cancellation of classes due to snow.
However, sometimes the students here at EMU get very lucky. On the 17th of January, after the accumulation of a few inches of snow, school was closed at 11 a.m.! I was just getting ready for one of my classes when [...]

(Some of you fellow country fans may have noticed, but I have decided to entitle each entry with a country song title. )
Well, Christmas break came and went. I thought I was going to really hate being home for so long, but I was not ready to come back to school by the end. Break [...]

It’s crazy to think that the first semester is almost over. It’s even crazier to think that just six months ago I was still in high school, suffering from senioritis. And now that we’re coming down to the end of classes, I can feel myself falling back into that infectious disease. Though I only have [...]

While searching for colleges, I never thought I would end up at a Mennonite College. I had gone to a Mennonite High School for a few years, and thought that going to a Mennonite College would be like taking the easy way out, or staying in the “Mennonite Bubble.”
I don’t really know how, but somewhere [...]

So far this semester, all of my classes have been great. In fact, there were times when I felt like my schedule was too easy. However, I’ve been warned it won’t stay that way. Each class is unique and adds to the reasons I love EMU.

“Ethics in the Way of Jesus” is one of my [...]

One of the best parts of college so far is the friends and relationships I have made. The first few weeks, you meet so many people that it’s hard to remember everyone’s name, but after being here a few months, I am incredibly grateful for the friendships I have. I have made a variety of [...]
