Every time I register I always think that I have the perfect schedule laid out. I always try to plan a day off within my schedule so that I have time to catch up on homework and do whatever else I need to during the day. However, when I meet with my advisor, I find out that my “perfect” schedule is not as perfect as I had thought. The classes that I registered for were not the classes that I should be taking. Every semester I go through this cycle, but I have started to realize that whatever my schedule is will still work. When I talked to other students, they had had similar experiences. My advisors have been life-savers for me the last couple years. If it were not for them, I would be on the wrong track and I wouldn’t be as successful as I am now. I’ve started to learn that it’s okay to have your schedule moved around, and there really is no such thing as a “perfect” schedule. If you start to freak out about planning out your classes that you want to register for, ask your advisor for help or even ask your PAiR! Your PAiRs and advisors are always there to help and they will make sure that you have a good experience registering for classes."</span></b>The PASShttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03394818038165860364noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3895288829933237862.post-34251846900445747962016-10-25T10:34:00.002-05:002016-10-25T10:35:47.014-05:00Midterm Madness <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I didn’t know what to expect. How was I was going to pass all of my classes? What if the class is too hard for me? I have extreme test anxiety, I don’t even know how to study! These are all of the things that filled my mind. In high school I didn’t study much, if I did it was for an hour the night before a test. I learned quickly that in college studying is life. Literally. </span></b><br />

Things seemed to be going better than I expected. Let’s just say I expected the worst to prepare myself for whatever college was going to throw at me. Weeks went by and I was happy because I was getting this college thing down. </span></b></div>

I saw it in most of my syllabi and it was starting to become the topic of conversation. It was when I overheard someone say “have you started studying for midterms yet” that I realized that it had to be a test of some sort. Shortly after hearing that conversation my teachers and advisors started talking more and more about midterms.</span></div>

Typically a midterm is an assessment given in the middle of an academic grading term. I began to worry a bit as I mentioned earlier that I have test anxiety. I figured the only way not to stress myself out was to start studying now. So I did just that. I noticed that RA’s were having floor programs about midterms. The library and lounges began to fill with students studying. I used the ALC also known as the Academic Learning Center a lot during midterms. </span></div>

I hope after reading this you will know what a midterm is and it won't be a surprise to you. I hope that you will be well prepared for midterms and utilize the on campus resources that are available to you. There are many people you can ask to help you with how to study for midterms, including your halls PAiR! </span></b><br />The PASShttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03394818038165860364noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3895288829933237862.post-53332881779124390292016-10-10T13:54:00.002-05:002016-10-10T13:54:57.799-05:00Christine's Journey with Homesickness <span style="background-color: white; color: black; display: inline; float: none; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 14.66px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: pre-wrap; word-spacing: 0px;"></span><br />

I am the youngest in my family so I had seen both of my older siblings go off to college and do fine on their own. I went in nervous, but confident that I would rock my freshman year without a question. As soon as my parents drove off, leaving me alone on campus, I cried. I did not know anyone in my hall. I felt so scared and unprepared that I just cried. I got involved in the Panther Marching Band and was eager to know more people on campus. Everyone was so kind, but I still missed being home. I missed my mom’s cooking and my dad’s horrible jokes. I missed knowing where I was going and living in the familiar. I slowly started finding where I belong at UNI. I got engaged in my classes and very involved in Residence Halls. I am now a Junior absolutely in love with this campus and my degree I am striving for here. Yes, I still love to visit home during breaks. Yes, I still miss my parents and call them. But I can’t say I have homesickness because UNI has become a second home for me."</span><br />

These unanswered questions weighed on me so heavily that on the day of my summer orientation, I switched from the group of students who had declared as English majors and instead, joined the group of deciding majors. At the time, I didn’t have a strong reason for choosing to be a deciding major, however, now when I look back on the choice to not declare a major as an incoming freshman, I realize that it was one of the best choices I could have made. I would recommend it to any freshman student.</span></div>

I lived in Bender Hall last year, a building composed primarily of freshmen and deciding students, so it was a perfect fit for me even before I knew it. In Bender, I was able to become a part of the Exploring Living Learning Community, or the ELLC, a program that encourages students to explore different options for careers, majors, and minors. </span></div>

In combination with this group to help me find and decide on a major was the advisor I was assigned after switching to a deciding major, Heather Asmus. It was with her help that I was able to take my time exploring my options, but also keep English as a part of my schedule and a part of my life. </span></div>

After deliberating over the summer whether or not to declare, I came back, and in the second week of my sophomore year, finally declared my major. It was still a nerve wracking process, but afterwards, the excitement and relief I felt was more than enough to assure me that I had made the correct choice. </span></div>

I hope that all of you students, whether deciding or not, have or will find your dream major, and will allow the resources here on campus and your passion help you along the way. </span></div>

<br />
Students! Did you know that you already pay for a Health fee in your tuition. This health fee gives you amazing opportunities to use facilities, like the WRC, Health Beat in the Union, and the Counseling Center above the Health Clinic, free of cost. Staying mentally and physically healthy is important for you to succeed academically. If you are too stressed or depressed, you may not want to go to class or you may be unable to sleep. If you are feeling sluggish and weak, going for a swim, jog, or climb in the WRC can add some dopamine to your brain. <br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="https://www.uni.edu/recreation/hours" target="_blank">WRC</a><br />
The WRC has an array of services offered to you as a student. From racquetball, basketball, weight lifting, running, rowing, biking and swimming, they have it all. Just remember to bring your ID in and you get in for free! Click on the WRC to go to the website for more information. <br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="https://www.uni.edu/recreation/fitness_classes" target="_blank">Fit Class Pass $50</a><br />
The WRC also has classes that you can sign up for or you can pay a one time fee of $50 to attend any of the classes. The classes range from yoga, biking, cardio, cycle and core, kickboxing, jazzercise, zumba, sculpting, pilates, and water classes. Click on the Fit Class Pass link to look at all the classes and times. Grab a friend to have as an accountability buddy and get fit! <br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.uni.edu/recreation/health_beat" target="_blank">Health Beat</a> <br />
Don't have a consistent schedule and the WRC is out of your way, look no further than the Health Beat located in the tunnel between the Union and Lang Hall. The convenient gym has some weights, bikes, elliptical, treadmills, and stair masters for your quick and easy work out. You get in for free just by showing your student ID at the front desk. Click the Health Beat link for hours and more details. <br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="https://www.facebook.com/collegehillfarmersmarket/?hc_ref=SEARCH&fref=nf" target="_blank">College Hill Farmers Market</a><br />
Not all of you have access to a car to get to the store. Fortunately, ever Thursday on the Hill is the College Hill Farmers Market. Buy some local treats and food while also going on a fun adventure. Just a walk away and there is no fee to go look around. <br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://ryan-vm.dor.uni.edu/FoodPro/" target="_blank">UNI Food Information</a><br />
Most students who live on campus have a meal plan through the dinning centers. Have you ever wondered what is in the food that you are eating? Click on the UNI Food Information link to see the menu, ingredients, and nutritional information. Better plan what you are going to eat and what portions are appropriate for what you are eating! <br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="https://www.uni.edu/counseling/" target="_blank">Counseling Center</a> <br />
Our bodies need to be more than just physically healthy, but also mentally healthy. Whether you are feeling anxiety, depression, or emotional confusion, the counseling center can help. Once you have had an initial consultation meeting, you would be placed with a counselor and decide how often you should have appointments. Remember you can always talk to an RA, professor, or walk into the counseling center to see someone if you are having an emotional emergency. Health goes beyond the physical body. <br />
<br />
<br />
So make goals to keep yourself mentally and physically healthy this semester and have fun! <br />

Congratulations! We are three weeks into the school year and things are going well!<br />
Now that you have settled into your schedule and found your favorite study spot, we can now get involved on campus. A very important event is happening next week at UNI... The Student Involvement Fair!!<br />
<br /><br />
On Thursday, September 15th from 11a.m. to 1p.m. there will 90 of the Student Organizations from UNI gathering outside of Maucker Union to showcase their different clubs and organizations that you can join! They all vary from nonprofit, social, political, major, financial, religious, or recreational/sports groups. It's great to join now because there will be other people joining at the same time. <br />
<br /><br />
Reason to get involved: <br />
Students who join a Student Organization are more likely to...<br />
1. ... Have better grades.<br />
2. ... Hold a position of responsibility.<br />
3. ...Graduate college.<br />
4. ...Get a job after college.<br />
5. Students who join a Student Organization are less likely to suffer from homesickness.<br />
<br /><br />
Now you're thinking, but I don't know what I would even join. Lucky for you, it cost nothing but your time to just walk around the involvement fair and you are under no obligation to join. Sometimes booths are even handing out free knick knacks or food. <br />
<br /><br />
So mark your calendar for some fun and get involved. For more information click on the link below to look into more of the organizations here at UNI. See you next Thursday! <br />

Your professor should have given you a handy dandy syllabus at the beginning of the course. The syllabus packet should have all of your required readings, papers, presentations, and assignments there. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Sitting down with your paper planner, online calendar, or excel spreadsheet and inputting your assignments will let you know what is coming up. There will be times where you have two tests, a paper, and a presentation all due in one week. Knowing this ahead of time will help you plan your time so you are not stressed to do everything last minute. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

For further help with time management, interpreting your syllabus, or class organization, call the Academic Learning Center at 319-273-6023 and a tutor can help you from the College Reading and Learning Center. </div>

Welcome to all of our newest panthers! Everyone is thrilled that you are here! Welcome back to all of current panther students, faculty, and staff. We would not be <span style="color: purple;"><b>UNI</b></span> without <span style="color: purple;"><b>U</b></span>.<br />
<br />
As the first week of classes are wrapping up, we hope that you have done a few things to get yourself started off on the right foot.<br />
<br />
1. Keep going to all your classes. Attendance can make or break your grades in college. Also, once you start skipping for invalid reasons, it becomes easier to keep missing. With in-state tuition costing $7,098 a year/2 semesters/15 weeks/3 times a week (MWF Class) = $78.86 per class if you skip. Skip on a T/Th and it cost you $118.30. Only skip if you have a valid reason like illness or other university sponsored event.<br />
<br />
2. Keep organized with some sort of to-do list. Whether you use a paper planner, Excel, Google Sheets, or Sticky Notes, knowing what you need to be doing for class is essential to being a successful student. You may try an Excel sheet and find that a paper planner works for you. You do not need to use all of them, just one faithfully.<br />
<br />
3. You get to know your professors. UNI prides itself on being a school that puts students first. While other universities prioritize research over students, UNI does not. Talk to your professors before class, after class, or during their office hours.<br />
<br />
4. Keep and use your Syllabus. Speaking of office hours, those should be on your syllabus! That nifty paper that tells you who the professor is, when their office hours are, when assignments are due, and how to best get a hold of the professor if you need to contact them. Never through this priceless paper away.<br />
<br />
5. Get to know your RA. If you are living in the dorms, get to know your RA. Why did they choose to become an RA? What's their favorite thing to do on campus? What is their major? Your RA is an amazing resource that is right down the hall. Even if you have a question that they cannot answer, they can help you find someone with the answer!<br />
<br />
6. Use UNI's Resources. UNI has an abundant of resources to make your college experience amazing and successful. From the Academic Learning Center in the ITTC to teach you tools to succeed in your college courses to the Financial Aid office in Gilchrist to make sure you are on the correct money track. Everyone is rooting for you to succeed here and we will always find someone to help, you just have to ask. <br />
<br />
7. Keep eating good food! Food is fuel and your body needs fuel to run. College can be busy and tasking on your body. Take advantage of all the different foods available on campus. Whether it's grabbing a salad in the union or remember to eat some fruit with breakfast, properly feed your body so that you can succeed mentally and physically in your classes.<br />
<br />
8. Stay Hydrated. Sometimes we forgot how important water is to our bodies. 8 cups x 8 times a days = 64 fluid ounces that your body needs to think. Being dehydrated not only hurts your digestion, but also how you focus and retain information in classes or studying.<br />
<br />
9. Set a Sleep Schedule. College students are the most sleep deprived population in the United States. Try getting into a schedule of when you go to bed and when you get up in the morning. Even if you have class at 10am on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, then 12:30pm on Tuesday and Thursdays, you should still try to wake up at 9am every morning.<br />
<br />
10. Have Fun and Get Involved! College is a time when you get to explore many different interests, events, and ideas, all within arms reach on campus. On September 15, there will be a Student Organization Fair outside of the Union (Rain location: Maucker Union) and you can talk to people in social, academic, or political organizations until you find your fit from 11am - 1pm.<br />

Sleep
deprivation is <5 hours/night so go to bed! And the artificial light from
your phone stimulates the brain to keep you awake, so to fall asleep faster disconnect
form your devices earlier in the evening.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri";">Touch- </span><span style="font-family: "calibri";">Fidgety? Grab a stress ball or ask your RA to host a program
where you make your own. Squeezing a stress ball can help you focus on
cognitive tasks and it helps relax your muscles. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri";">Smell- </span><span style="font-family: "calibri";">Certain scents like lavender and rosemary aid concentration
and have a calming effect. Smelling a certain scent, such as a perfume while studying
and during the exam may help with recall. The presence of a supportive friends
has been proven to reduce stress; nasally sensing friends’ pheromones is the cause
of this effect. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri";">Taste- </span><span style="font-family: "calibri";">Healthy doses of milk & yogurt, oatmeal, blueberries,
fish, dark bittersweet chocolate, banana’s and green veggies all have nutrients
to help with concentration, energy, and cognitive functions. Remember
water hydrates the brain, improving concentration and eliminating toxins. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<span style="font-family: "calibri";">Movement- </span><span style="font-family: "calibri";">5 to 30 minutes of silent meditation or a focus on
breathing each day releases tress. Hitting the gym releases endorphins to improve
your mood and decrease health problems. <o:p></o:p></span>The PASShttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03394818038165860364noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3895288829933237862.post-39309863658391756292016-04-22T09:44:00.000-05:002016-04-22T09:44:20.579-05:00Spring 2016 Finals Schedule <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">If you have a darker complexion, the
melanin in your skin confers some natural protection from sunburns, but you
still need protection from harmful ultraviolet rays. While people with fair
skin are more likely to develop skin cancer due to sun exposure, people with
dark skin <span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">tones are at risk of more serious kinds of cancer when they get it.
The American Academy of Dermatology <span style="border: 1pt windowtext; color: windowtext; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0in; padding: 0in; text-decoration: none; text-underline: none;">recomme</span></span></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">nds that EVERYONE
wear sunscreen daily for the safety of their skin.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<b><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; text-transform: uppercase;">MOST OF WHAT YOU CALL AGING IS REALLY YEARS OF SUN
DAMAGE.</span></b><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Dermatologists with the Skin Cancer
Foundation estimate that <span style="border: 1pt windowtext; color: windowtext; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0in; padding: 0in; text-decoration: none; text-underline: none;">90 percent of visible
aging comes not from the number of candles on your birthday cake but the hours
you’ve spent in the sun</span>. Wearing sunscreen daily saves your skin
from years of visible damage later.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Many people think they don’t need
sunscreen on overcast days or for brief stints in the sun, but for the
ultraviolet rays that damage your skin, a little cloud cover means nothing. UV
light penetrates clouds with ease, so you need protection even on cloudy days.<o:p></o:p></span></span><br />

</span></b><u><span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">Seek shade</span></u><span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;"> when appropriate, remembering that the
sun’s rays are strongest between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. If your shadow is shorter
than you are, seek shade.</span></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;"><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><u><span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">Wear protective clothing</span></u><span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;"> such as a long-sleeved
shirt, pants, a wide-brimmed hat and sunglasses, when possible.</span></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;"><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
</span></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><u><span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">Use extra caution near water, snow and sand</span></u><span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;"> as they reflect

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><strong>What happens if I get put on a waiting list?</strong> We recommend keeping your name on the waiting list and waiting to see if positions open up.

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><strong>What do I do if a class is closed?</strong> Check and see if there is another section available, get on a wait list if offered, check back regularly to see if that class or another class section has opened up, or ask the instructor or department for permission to join the class. <br /><br /><strong>How should I enroll in co-requisite classes?</strong> When enrolling in classes that require co-requisites, you must have previously taken the course or add all of the co-requisite classes to your shopping cart and register for them at the same time.</span> </div>
