Opportunities Currently, the University of Georgia chapter of Humans v. Zombies struggles with attracting new players and player retention. They will have a few players from each year sign up, but the next semester, most of those numbers drop. This results in a shortage of leadership in later years, as there are not as many capable juniors and seniors who are willing to organize the game. This puts the standing of the University of Georgia chapter at risk and could lead to its dismantling.…
I began my educational journey at Georgia State University as an enthusiastic pre-medicine major with a very unrealistic goal of taking on the world.I told myself I would sacrifice anything to become a doctor, including accepting the possibility of never having children due to how hard it would be for me to spend quality time with them.I constantly worried about the finances required for my education, if my parents had the necessary funds to pay their bills, and much more.As far as my academic…
Before, I had only looked at the college itself – the campus, food, social life, etc. Now, I had a goal to find the best physics colleges in Georgia. Luckily, my standards lined up with my first choice – the University of Georgia. I applied for early admission and two months later received a letter of acceptance. I was ecstatic, to say the least. With my acceptance into the 2016 fall semester, I have plans to earn a Bachelor’s degree in physics. I have a large amount of college credits…

To say I was not thrilled to be back in Statesboro was an understatement, but I quickly found appreciation for the city when I met and fell in love with the man of my dreams. Before moving back to Statesboro, I had promised myself that I would not start any relationships and the point of me living here was solely to attend school. That all changed when I met Patrick,…
These were simple classes that mostly resembled my high school literature classes. Later as a college freshman attending the University of North Georgia, I took a required world literature class with Professor Kluczykowski, and to be honest, I felt slightly overwhelmed in the beginning. I was scared to speak up in class; nervous to voice my opinion about Tartuffe for fear of of saying something stupid. But after a while, I realized that we were all just students reading the same material and I…

Andrew Jackson impacted the lives of Indians after he signed the Indian removal act of 1830. This was supposed to be a peaceful process for the Indians, but caused many problems, and forced Indians off of their land. There were protests from both Indians and whites who did not agree with the Indian Removal Act, but whites wanted more land. The Indian Removal Act was a turning point in American history because of its impacts in Indian culture, Native relationships with Americans, and the creation…
