Finals start on May 14th, and are going until May 20th.

Make sure you know when your finals are, and be sure to pencil them in your planner!
Finals can be a very stressful week, so be sure to take advantage of all the resources you have at your disposal. The tutoring center will be more that happy to help you out if you need help with final college writing papers or studying for that big exam you’re all so thrilled to take. 🙂

Good luck everyone! <3

Hey You,


I see you readin’ my blog all interested and stuff…I know what’s goin’ on…I’m onto you…


Sorry I know that that was creepy but I have to get your attention somehow and what better way to do than by being as creepy as possible!  Still reading?!?!?!…Good!


I hope you all had a great long weekend even though it rained..the whole time..but that’s OK we have a nice week ahead of us.  Now here is something I know you all are either going to be ecstatic about or terrified of…

There are only 4 weeks left of this semester!!  Reason to be ecstatic…ONLY A MONTH LEFT AND ONLY ONE OF THOSE WEEKS IS A FULL WEEK!!!!  Reason to be terrified…FINALS!!  




Remember to utilize your resources.  If you need help studying for your finals make sure to use the tutoring services!!  They can work wonders there at the Centers For Learning!  Also, now is the time most students can start registering.  If your enrollment appointment has not already happened, it will be very soon so be ready.  Make use of the shopping cart feature in your ISIS.  You can make your schedule and pick your classes by putting them into your shopping cart.  Then, when it come time to enroll all you have to do is click “enroll” and your done!  Saves buttloads of time searching for the right class while they fill up.


Now for the fun stuff…


Tonight there is an Open mic night at the Fox Common on East Campus.  The event starts at 9PM and will be featuring a number of different musicians from around campus doing their own songs.  So come and enjoy some good music and get a bite to eat at Mahoney’s!


Come out to the Fresh Friday’s Party on…you guessed it..Friday!  The event is put on by Student Activities and starts at 10PM.  Go ahead…let loose…get down with your bad self!


MOVIES ROCK…sorry, no movies shown this weekend…BUT…On Saturday head to the Fox Common to watch the Red Sox play the Orioles on the big screen!  The event starts at 7PM and there will be free hot dogs and soda…just like at the real games…but fo free!!


Alright I’m Done,

Hey Students!
I hope you guys are taking advantage of the nice weather we have been having lately, especially since it’s supposed to rain all weekend!  But you know what they say! April Showers bring May Flowers. :]

Anyways trying to adjust to this weather can be difficult, so always make sure you check the weather before you step out the door to go to class!  Especially with the semester ending within a month, it’s a great class to pack small things that you won’t be ending up using anymore and send them home, so its less of a hassle when you officially move out.  This includes winter jackets, all the bundles of sweatshirts you have and etc!

Anywayssss, everyone has been buzzing lately about advising and enrolling into classes!  If you are interested in changing your major, or adding a major/minor, right now would be a great time to start taking action!  First you would have to speak with your advisor to get any feedback and so they can help you with your decision.  They would also help you on what classes to take first and then what to do from there.  Next step, is to take action on your own!

If you want to add on a minor, the first step you would have to take is to go onto the http://www.uml.edu/ homepage and find the minor you are interested in taking.  To do so, you would click on the colleges/departments on the left side tab on the home page and find it from there.  From there, you would find the minor you are interested in taking and find out the courses you have to take in order to be able to declare the minor.  After taking those classes, you would go to the registar’s office and fill out a form to be able to declare into the major.

Usually what people do is declare minors that relate to their major.  A lot of criminal justice majors minor in psychology, and lots of health majors minor in nutrition because a lot of the requirements for their minor, also have to be taken for their own major.  Might as well knock two birds with one stone while you have the chance!  Or if you happen to be a music major but are really interested in business, then you can make it happen, you just got to take action!!

Enjoy the rest of this beautiful day and make sure you attend the beat the system event tonight on Cumnock at 8PM on north campus!

1. I know it’s tempting to want to schedule your classes with your roommates/best friends/boyfriend/girlfriend/etc….but don’t base your schedule on this. It’s beneficial for you to make a schedule that’s geared towards your academic career, not your social life. It’s also a great opportunity for you to make new friends! You can connect with other students easier if your flying solo. Remember, class time is YOU time. YOU are here to get an education that will help better your future! You won’t get to do that if your chatting with your friends the whole class.
2.  Check out the registrar’s website prior to your Enrollment appointment. http://www.uml.edu/registrar/ is the website to go to! If you click the Fall 2010 Class Schedule you can see the classes available well before you have to register.
3. When you’re looking at the Fall 2010 Class Schedule, write down (copy & paste works, too)  the classes you are interested in taking or need to take. (This is why meeting with your advisor is a good idea. They can help guide you in the direction!) While you write down these, WRITE DOWN THE CLASS NUMBER!!!! These numbers make it SUPER EASY to sign up for classes!!!
4. On the morning of your enrollment appointment, GET UP EARLY!!!! I mean, around 8 or 9 am, something reasonable. I know it’s amazing to sleep in, but remember “The early bird catches the worm.” This saying is totally applicable here!! Classes fill up quickly!!! If you stay ahead of the game, you can grab the classes you need and not worry about permission numbers!
5. Another tip – ALWAYS use SWAP classes. Don’t drop a class if you want to add a different one in it’s place, SWAP it so if you don’t get into the new one, you still have the old one as a back up! 

   So there are my awesome scheduling making tips!!! If you follow these tips, scheduling making should be a breeze!!!

 DAISY HERE!

Stressed? Worried about finals coming up? Don’t be! Want to know why? Because the school is giving you ways not to be stressed out. Like how we have no classes on Monday. Did you know that? Next Monday is Patriot Day! And the week after that Spring Carnival starts! That Friday is University Day! So many awesome day offs coming up.

Now you have two choices.

1. You can either spend those days studying and making it easier for you when you actually have class.
2. You can relax. Relaxing is nice, right? It will help you to de-stress and prepare you for whatever your teachers throw at you next.

Whatever you choose, make sure it’s a good one. Don’t have a panic attack and force yourself to end up getting really sick. Remember that Health Services and the Counseling Center are there to help you whenever you need.

And guess what? So are we!
