Goals

This is my first semester attending SIU. I am very excited to have moved on from John A. Logan and I'm looking forward to what lies ahead. My goals are pretty basic; I hope to attain good grades while learning in depth about different aspects of my major and minor (Public Relations and Marketing). I can already see how much more interesting college will be as I study classes based on my major and minor. I hope to learn things this semester I can use in other classes and in my career when I graduate in 2010. I'm looking forward to an intriguing and challenging semester at SIU.
