Can you believe that it’s the end of the semester already? This semester has been different, to say the least — whether it was taking classes online for the first time, adjusting to new rules and regulations or any of the other factors that come with navigating college life… during a pandemic. Despite these challenges, we masked up and got it done.
Nevertheless, as we finish our last in-person classes and prepare to head home, keep in mind all that you have accomplished this semester. Don’t let it get overshadowed by the missed opportunities and struggles that COVID-19 placed in our paths.
This winter break, make sure that you use the free time for some much needed self-care. Sleep until noon and watch your favorite movies. Spend some socially-distanced quality time with family and friends this holiday season. Start that workout routine or try that new recipe you’ve been meaning to make, or our personal favorite, catch up on some of the articles we have published from this past semester. From recipes and reviews to sports and politics, there’s something for everyone — and it’s all conveniently online. While it’s been strange not having a physical copy of the newspaper in our hands every Tuesday morning, we’re glad we were able to stick it out through this year and all its news — there was certainly no shortage of happenings in 2020.
To you, Sharks, we want to thank you. Thank you for coming along for this admittedly bumpy ride with us and allowing us to help amplify student voices. If there’s ever anything we can do to better support you at The Current, let us know. Whether that’s speaking to us about your concerns, writing for the paper or finding another way to get your ideas out there, visit us on Instagram, @thecurrentnsu, or our website, nsucurrent.nova.edu, to get in contact. We’re here because of you — and we want to do what we can to better your experience at NSU.
As we all ring in the new year on Dec. 31, from all of us at The Current, we wish you a successful next semester and a bright 2021.
