Grade?

Is everyone passing their classes? I am sure mid term is coming for most, if it hasn't allready happened. Don't forget to drop the failing classes before it is to late.

Good thougth, I did that before!

The main idea is to get good grades do a lot for the school and the chapter!

Many times the doers do and the rest just________, fill in the blank!

We as Greeks do more and have better grades because we are pushed by our Greek Peers to do better!

You learn how to keep studing in college but in a Greek Org. you learn how to study and think!!!!!

Uch...this is our midterm week too! I'm not failing any classes (yet!) but I am missing chapter with a study excuse tonight because I have FOUR tests and TWO papers in the next three days. I'm afraid I might go crazy. Thankfully, Fall Break starts Friday afternoon...not a minute too soon! Unfortunately, if I don't do fabulously on my French Liniguistics (how fun does that sound?) test Thursday I'll be dropping that in a hurry... Sorry to ramble but sometimes college just wears me out! Hope everyone else's semester is a little less stressful than mine...

Fall Break is really just an excuse for us to have a few days off from classes! This year, it's a four day weekend, no classes Monday or Tuesday. A lot of my sisters are flying to Chicago to go visit friends or to LA, but I prefer to crawl in my bed back home, sleep forever, and wake up to some delicious home-cooked food. Oh, and catch up on all the TV I've missed since school started!

Fall break often equals "the day before and after homecoming weekend because everyone will blow off classes anyway.'

Thumbs down

Well at least be thankful that you get the day before thanksgiving off! At FSU we only got Thanksgiving and the day after (and no fall break i might add). Most profs would schedule tests for the Wednesday before just to make sure people didn't blow off their class. How lame is that?

No fall break here either. My school hates giving days off.

We hardly get any days off here. I have been soooo stressed the past two weeks. I have this 6 credit hour class (most classes are 3 credit hours) that is required for all business majors. It's one paper after another. Last week, I had just turned in an eighteen page paper on the marketing, management, and financial analysis on Wal-Mart. It was not fun. I had no life for a good two weeks. I found a whole new appreciation for the librarians. They are my heroes.

School does suck I had a 30 page paper due my second to last semester and it was a pain. Thank god the teacher liked me and it was a pass fail class. I am glad school is over with but after have graduated, school doesn't seem as hard as I rememberd it being.

My Fall Break isn't really a break. The schools kicks everyone off campus for a week to get everyone out. Last year we didn't get kicked out and roits broke out during Halloween Weekend. Next year they are going to have classes again, kinda like a trial period.

Our mid term week was last week. I did pretty well on most, though I may have to drop a class.
