When is it appropriate to use a semi-colon ";"?
Semi-colons can be used to connect two independent clauses; they should not be used with conjunctions (and, but, yet), but they can be used with transitional language (however, conversely, etc.)

EX: She wanted to join XYZ; however, her friend wanted to join BCD.
