As the leaves change, it signals our transition to autumn and its coming months. This is also a time when you may be starting to think about what spring will bring. Before you do that, take a moment to think about how far you have come thus far. What are you proud of? What are some of your most defining moments this semester? What will you do differently next term? What traditions have you participated in that have made your CU experience special? How have you contributed to your Buff community?聽What is one challenge you overcame?聽聽
Course registration starts soon, and I encourage you to reflect on your academic journey so far. Taking time to think about where you are and create intentions for the future can help you make the most of your time here at CU Boulder. One benefit of being a Buff is that you get to shape your academic journey to match your individual needs. You could consider changing your degree, adding a second major or minor, completing a certificate program or finding a student group focused on your interests. As you explore your options, know that you are not alone in figuring things out. Our聽Career Services聽team is here to help you determine your goals and prepare for life after graduation, in addition to your academic advisor.聽聽
As you consider your plans for spring, know there are many ways to enrich your semester and learn outside the classroom. Internships, volunteering, education abroad, employment are all聽transformative opportunities聽that allow for skill development and personal growth.聽聽聽聽聽聽
