Art senior working on a lithography print inside a Grant Hall studio.
What is your biggest joy of the semester? Finding a way to apply all the things to art that I want to do. Being able to make work that’s bigger, because I understand this process now. Expanding my work would be my biggest joy of the semester. l can push myself and I can come back from that.

Mechanical engineering senior taking care of business during study week.
What’s study week like for you? I have e-transfer homework, two projects, a technical report due tomorrow, and five finals next week. I’ll probably go even harder at it the next few days. The biggest challenge is trying to stay on top of everything and be mentally OK.

Pre-med freshman working on a picnic table outside of Lied Library.
How did you pick this study spot? I like it outside. It’s nice and cool. It’s nice to be around the trees and nobody bothers you when it’s quiet.

Film 335 instructor teaches students about working with professionals in the community on audio, lighting, and camera units.
Why are students filming at night? When you’re shooting your projects, you want to get the night shoots out of the way first. Unless you have a $2 million dollar budget, you’ll have to shoot everything out of order and all night shoots first. One thing about shooting at night, sometimes it’s for six weeks or 5-7 days in a row, and it does take a toll after a while. Especially if you’re standing for 65% of the time. That’s one of the big shocks that students face when they come in, but that’s one main thing we’ll instill in them when they get out of here. It’s difficult, but with determination, you’ll find your space, just like the professionals out there.

Kinesiology freshman studying in the Thomas T. Beam Engineering Complex.
What’s been your biggest challenge this semester? Procrastination has always been a big problem for me, so college is just a wake-up call because I can’t do that as a model. Trying to get into a study cycle was the hardest thing for me.

Adjunct professor taking student ceramics projects out of molds in a Grant Hall.
What's been your biggest challenge this semester? This is the oldest building on campus, and it was never meant to be a ceramics studio in any way, shape, form. It’s fine for now, we make the most of it.
