It was that time of year again. Time to look through the course catalog, time to do your research on Rate my Professor. However, this time was different. It was FINALLY my last time registering for classes as an undergraduate. With the help of my amazing advisers, I was already on track to graduate since the day I switched my major to Youth Development, so I knew the exact classes I needed to take and when I needed to take them.
When attending the youth development advising event, I got to meet new people who had already declared their major or who thinking about declaring their major as youth development. It was great to be able to meet new people and give a brief elevator speech about what youth development is and what we do. In addition, it was great to see so many seniors coming to the event to assist new comers and give them insight on previous professors, classes, etc.
After the advising part was complete, of course we broke out into an ice breaker, which is one of the course requirements in our youth development classes. Ronya, our YDEV Org President was there to lead us in a ice breaker titled "rainstorm" which everyone seemed to really enjoy. In addition to this, we went around in a circle and introduced ourselves and said where we were in our undergraduate careers, with most of us being seniors. I feel as if all majors should do events like these because it gives newcomers a chance to learn more about the major and get feedback from others who have been in the program for a few years. I really enjoyed being a part of this event and wish there had been more newcomers that we could help out!
