Who said summer classes can't be fun?

So in addition to working in the Admissions office this summer I am also taking two summer courses. Right now I'm taking Public Relations and will be in Biology when the second summer session begins. PR is my major and interests me greatly, which makes the 8:30am-11:40am class much more bearable than it might be for someone else. (Not to say I don't need a large iced coffee from Dunkin's to make it through). I have had this professor before and I really enjoy her classes. Her assignments are relevant and she has an engaging way of teaching. For this class we each chose a company or organization to represent for the entire semester- I chose the Miss America Organization. Each assignment is related to your chosen company and at the end of the course we will have a portfolio ready to be presented... useful materials for future job interviews!

Tonight I'm going to Ma Soba for sushi and then to the Comedy Connection in Faneuil Hall... should be fun!

My Summer Begins in the City...

Hello! My name is Kayla Shepherd and I'm a student at Suffolk University. I'm also a Student Ambassador (primarily a tour guide). A few of us are working in the admissions office over the summer and I began my summer hours today. I wasn't dreading being inside when the weather forecast predicted thunder showers for the entire day, however, it turned out to be sunny and warm- that's New England for you!

You'll hear from me again soon, but until then I hope you enjoy the sunshine!
