I hope that you all have enjoyed the activities and events that have taken place thus far. Campus Activities Board did an excellent job in planning and organizing PV’s annual SpringFest week. The PV Choice Awards committee also did a great job with the annual PV Choice Awards.
On behalf of SGA and CAB we would like to thank everyone for their participation in two of our most anticipated events of the spring semester. However, we as students, especially those graduating seniors must keep in mind the “big picture” and buckle down these next few weeks.
There are exactly 31 days left until graduation day and it seems as though your school year has flown by. The next few weeks are crucial in order for you to finish the semester strong and give that last push and earn an A. If you haven’t already, you should be slowly cutting the extracurricular activities and focusing more on your studies. Do finish what you start but keep in mind it is important for you to help pave a smoother road for those to follow.
The word “student leader” is not specifically designated for those with positions in organizations around campus. The student who voluntarily holds tutoring sessions throughout the week is just as much a leader as someone with a title.
Graduating seniors, I would wish you luck on not only finishing your semester strong and future endeavors, but you do not need it. The saying goes, “luck is when hard work meets preparation.” The hard work you have put in thus far studying and acquiring knowledge has prepared you for any obstacle that comes your way.
Stay “Hungry and Humble” as you continue your undergraduate careers. Stay hungry for the continuing pursuit of knowledge and the ability to put that knowledge toward a useful purpose. Your education is not defined by the number of diplomas or certificates you receive, but your ability to seek out understanding of a subject without harming others.
I wish all of you the best and God Bless!
