I really can’t believe the semester is coming to end. It really has flown by.  While everyone is scurrying around, studying for finals, finishing last minute projects, and doing pointless busywork–I decided to pick three main things that have either happened this semester or that I have learned about:

1. Firing Coach Tommy Bowden. The number one has to be the firing of Coach Tommy Bowden. When the news errupted around campus, people were literally cheering in the horseshoe, the library, and the cafeteria.  The outbreak was one of triumph, relief, and a better hope for the future.  Dabo has now been named head coach and the consensus around campus is excitement.

2. Twitter. I never really knew what Twitter was until my public relations class here at Clemson. I really didn’t think it was that big of a deal at first and knew that I would not become interested.  However, after I become more and more experienced with tweets, I found myself constantly checking to see what people were up to and if anyone had responded to my tweets. I am excited to get more involved in the social media world.

3.The presidential election. We have marked history and I am thrilled that I was able to be a part of it. This was my first year to vote and I will never forget it. This election was so intense but the outcome literally changed history forever.  I am excited to see what Obama will do for our country.
