Positives

Rush week is now in full swing! Many have been waiting all semester for this, especially the freshman who are now allowed to go out for the fraternity or sorority of their choice. Good luck and have fun to all!

Charger Rec Group X classes and Rec Sports have now started— just in time to work on those New Years Resolutions. Doing squats with other people is a lot more motivating than doing them alone. Stop by the gym- classes range from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. and some are only a half hour long.

Negatives

One nice thing about winter break was the lack of email notifications. Those days are long gone as club meetings and events start up and every single one of SCOPE’s events is advertised.

Forgetting the quality of dinner at Bartels on any given night. Over Winter break it seemed to slip my mind that the potatoes are the only food you can count on, and the vegetarian section is home to meat and dessert instead.

Battery Charge

One week of classes is down! That only means that we are one week closer to Spring break and summer vacation. Wishful thinking at its finest as midterms will come before both of those. Hopefully everyone’s textbooks, notebooks, online software and motivation are set and ready to go for the next few months.
