College Admission at Loyola

Since I’m a second semester junior (crazy!!), it’s about that time where I have to start applying to social work internships for my senior year.  The School of Social Work requires all Bachelor’s students to have either a summer internship or a fall and spring internship during senior year in order to graduate.  Other majors [...]

Earlier this week, I braved the snowstorm to attend the well-anticipated Career Fair. I wasn’t there for long, so I only spoke with several companies. The main companies I was looking to speak to were Deloitte and Epic, which I got the chance to do. Both companies were more interested in students that were graduating [...]

We’re halfway through week two of school everybody! Happy belated Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Because I only have classes three days a week, and I had a four-day weekend, I’m still not quite in school mode yet. Now that I have experienced every class, I am very pleased that all of my professors seem [...]

Okay, so since I’ve covered this Winter Break (past), it’s only fair that I share some of my resolutions for this upcoming year (future). I’ll also share some pictures from this Winter Break that are worthy of my publication in a third short-and-sweet blog. On New Years Eve, I realized that for the first year [...]

These past few weeks have been busy for me, as they have been for everyone else. Midterms have been coming and going, but they’ve been like that for over a month. My schedule has calmed down now on the school front, and the waters should be relatively calm until Finals. First order of business I [...]

There a lot of perks to living in a big city. One of them is having friends with cool internships. Because of this, once in a while I get the opportunity to partake in some cool intern activities. One of my friends has an internship with Allied-THA, a marketing company that does things like research, [...]

For my internship this week I was asked to profile the commencement speaker for the SoC graduation, Carol Marin. Marin is a local print and broadcast journalist. Marin is a political columnist at the Chicago Sun-Times, a political editor at NBC5 and a contributor at WTTW’s  ”Chicago Tonight.” Yeah, she is pretty legit. She invited [...]

Yesterday was my final day of classes for this semester.  The feeling is always bittersweet.  I thoroughly enjoy attending lectures and even doing homework!  You would be surprised how incredibly boring breaks can be when you suddenly have no pending papers, homework or other tedious tasks that always seem to take up the day.  Regardless, [...]
