Yay! Veteran's Day! :) Haha you know what that means...NO SCHOOL! So today i spent time with my cousin. We went to the grocery store to buy some ingredients to prepare our lunch. We figured that making our own homemade lunch would be a lot cheaper and healthier than eating out. It was fun preparing the meal & it was definitely a lot of fun eating it too!
I suppose I should do some work from the book, since we didnt have class today :P

Today in class, we talked about the radio podcast project. We got a better understanding of what exactly we were suppose to do for it. A lot of us were confused about the purpose behind it. The main concept was to interview a senior or a peer mentor. We not only had to interview them, but we had to record the conversation on audio. We were to ask them any questions we had and it would serve as a time to get any questions answered. Also, Professor Dan went around the class and asked each person what their major was and if we had talked to an adviser.

Instead of going to class, we went to the library today. We took part in a meeting and were able to learn more about current problems on campus. There was a time of Q&A where the students could directly ask questions. Some of the key points that were brought up were:
Vision for next year
-make university better and stronger
-shrink the size of population (graduate more students/accept less people)
-4 initiatives (better retention, graduate students, diversity, going forward)
-problem (decrease in funds/budget)
-how they are going to approach next year/ provide more classes
Policy on remedial classes
-complete remediation within one year
-dire budget problem (cut $44 million dollars this year)
-furlough (24days a year)
-enrollment was cut 12% this year
