Writing Center

Another trip that the class took was to the writing center. The writing center is located on the right as you walk in to the library. Here they told us about a great resource that St. John's has to offer. At the Writing Center you can make an appointment to meet with one of the workers and you two can have a session in which you look over any writing assignment and work on it. You can make your appointment online and it's for an hour, but you can always make more than one appointment. You sit down with one of the workers and discuss your paper and go over it for any grammatical errors.  If for some reason you don't like the person you are assigned, you can request for a change and continue with your session. They have one on the Staten Island campus, but why go there when you're a Queens campus student?!

Study Abroad Fair

The class went on a trip to a study abroad fair in DAC. They had a lot of information on places where you can study abroad during the summer. Some of the places included Rome, Spain, Japan, and many more. Although I wasn't very interested in the fair, solely because I want to enjoy my summer as opposed to spend it doing schoolwork, I walked around and took some flyers just in case. They had a lot of pins with different sayings in different languages. I took a couple and decided to decorate my hat.
