Hello again!! Here I am in one of my favorite plac

Hello again!! Here I am in one of my favorite places.. my room!!🤩 Id like to say my roomate and I decorated it really nicely. I live in Tenochca which was recently renovated. The good thing about it is it’s next to the pool:) So in the first two weeks of school there’s this thing called Aztec Nights! Yesterday was movie night featuring the Breakfast Club which I HAD to go to! There’s also plenty of other events such as dances and games to play. That’s all my time on here, it was amazing giving you all a little inside scoop of SDSU❤️🖤!!

Hi! I’m Elizabeth and I’m currently a freshman

Hi! I’m Elizabeth and I’m currently a freshman at San Diego State University. I am taking over the account for today and tomorrow ☺️. I’m undeclared so that means I will be taking general education classes this semester. Classes start next week and the one I’m looking forward to the most would be my child development class. My high school didn’t offer that, so it’s going to be a new experience. I moved in August 19th and I love it here!! The library is included in the second slide since, that’s probably the best place to study, other than by the turtle pond 🐢! I’ll share more info tomorrow so stay tuned!

Congratulations to our High School Class of 2021 o

Josh, a recent graduate of the University of Penns

Josh, a recent graduate of the University of Pennsylvania, shares his experience of going from college to the workforce: "Balancing different commitments is a skill I learned in college that translates directly to the career world. It allows me to focus on my work when I am at work and to have time to pursue my interests outside of work. Currently, in addition to my job, I am working on a project with friends and creating videos for my videography Instagram page."
