Choosing a college major can feel like you’re mapping out your entire adult life before you’ve even figured out how you like your coffee. (Some of us claimed we liked it black for a whole semester because it sounded like the cool answer.) What if you choose incorrectly? What if you lose interest? What if the subject you love leads to a career you…
You sit down to start an assignment. Ten minutes later, you’ve answered two texts and gone to the kitchen to grab a snack. Suddenly, cleaning the refrigerator also feels strangely urgent. Meanwhile, the assignment is still sitting there waiting for you. Most of us are no strangers to procrastination. It’s easy to assume we’re being lazy or just bad at managing our…
If you’re studying accounting, there’s a decent chance you’ve heard some version of this advice: “Try to get into the Big 4.” Easy enough, right? Big 4 (or Big Four) accounting jobs can be competitive, especially for students and recent graduates trying to get their foot in the door. But to get hired at one of these elite companies, you don’t need a…
Growing a small business can feel like building the plane while flying it. You’re attracting customers, watching cash flow, fixing whatever broke that morning, and somehow also planning for next year. No pressure. Thankfully, a clear growth strategy can make things more manageable. By choosing the right goals, understanding what customers need, and building systems that can support expansion, you can…
The Supreme Court may seem far from daily life, with its formal robes, marble columns, and lofty legal language. But its decisions don’t stay in Washington, D.C.

Studying classics helps us understand where many of our biggest modern questions came from, including who gets power, how societies define justice, and why humans keep telling the same stories in new outfits. A single, harmless question comes up a lot in humanities courses (usually from someone trying very hard not to care): Why does any of this matter? And…
Monsters have been with us since the beginning of storytelling. Before novels, there were myths. Before myths, there were campfire stories about things lurking just outside the firelight. Something about the human brain is wired to conjure creatures (and compelled to write entire books about them). But literary monsters have never just been about scaring people. The…
Some of the best career growth strategies for BBA graduates are building experience intentionally, developing leadership habits early, and expanding your skills before you need them. That’s the blueprint. But here’s how it usually plays out. Most graduates start in roles like “marketing coordinator” or “financial analyst trainee.” That’s normal (and honestly, a good thing). Those early roles are where you…
Have you ever seen wheelchair rugby players slam into each other at full speed? How about sitting volleyball players, as they cover the court with explosive movement generated entirely from their upper bodies and core? These are serious athletes doing serious athletic work. And behind a lot of that performance is a science: kinesiology, the study of human movement. Kinesiology…
Summer break hits differently when you’ve been running on fumes since January. That first week is sacred. Your priorities are (in no particular order) sleeping in, ignoring all emails, and reacquainting yourself with your old friend, the couch. You’ve earned it.
