Senior Sendoffs
Between now and the end of the semester, we will post a few pieces of advice from our Graduating Seniors. This week, Barbara Wakeland and Samantha McSparrin will share some wisdom from the last four years.
Look for involvement opportunities that are different from what everyone else does! Freshman Associates is NOT the only cool thing to do at Southern Miss as a freshman. Also, look into internships. Your professors will think highly of you if you pursue educational opportunities outside of the classroom. There are opportunities locally and in other parts of the country. Ask for help in your department, they should have plenty of resources to help!
Also, Congrats to Barbara for being accepted into Law School! Good Luck!
Take advantage of the study abroad scholarship that Luckyday offers! There are amazing opportunities for short and long term programs all over the world. The scholarship makes it possible for many students to travel during their undergrad careers, when it many have otherwise been impossible. College is short, but taking the time to go abroad is certainly worth the investment. My semester abroad has even given me a greater sense of pride for my home state and university.Samantha is currently studying abroad and is helping with English language tutoring for law students at the University of Orleans. Great job!

Priority Preview Recap
Over 75 students joined us on April 5 and 6 for Priority Preview. They were introduced to Luckyday and met a lot of different people! In between signing up for classes and meeting roommate possibilities, they also became acclimated [somewhat] to the University and had a little fun in the process.
They also participated in a mass ice breaker movement coordinated by PlayFair. Good time was had by all!
We are very excited about the Class of 2013 entering the program in the fall. Here are just a few pictures to exhibit the fun that was had!
