Balancing school, social life, work, extracurriculars, and/or whatever you are involved in is a challenge. To me, balancing the different aspects of your life is the most necessary skill an individual should have aside from learning how to learn.

Senioritis is an Opinion column written by one or two Stevens student(s) in their last year of study to discuss life experiences during their final year at Stevens, and other related subject matter.
The 2019-2020 school year got off to a great start. Returning students were greeted with unstable classroom assignments as the registrar struggled to find rooms amidst wide-reaching construction projects throughout campus.
Senior year. Saying those words out loud sounds wrong somehow. After three, painstakingly long yet short years at Stevens, I still can’t fathom that my time here is almost up.
A lot has happened since the pandemic started way back in March. Our academic and social lives were drastically impacted by our return home, considering how most of us spent the last year and a half stewing in our rooms.
Although I have a month until I walk across the stage at graduation, the time has finally come for my last column.
With only a couple more weeks to write this column, I have a lot on my mind. There are so many topics that I wanted to talk about, but I simply no longer have the time to write them now that graduation is right around the corner.
It’s been four years, I still don’t know where to start, I still don’t know where I’m going, and I still can’t put into words why Stevens is so special.
The weather is finally warming up and we all know what that means for this Jersey boy. Whenever I’m not working (or avoiding the things I should be doing), you can find me outside enjoying this beautiful weather.
Huh… that’s weird! How is it possible that I am sitting here, writing the infamous “Senioritis” column for The Stupe?! It feels like it was just two weeks ago that I was writing under “Mind of a Freshman.”
I’ve always done my best to live by this idea. To be better today than I was yesterday. It’s a fairly simple concept and falls directly in line with the idea that we must not compare ourselves to others, as hard as that can be.
