“I prefer in-person classes because it’s more engaging for me and easier to focus. Classes on Zoom, I am not disciplined enough and it’s hard to stay engaged.” – Lindsey Johnson | Sociology Major

“Two people come to mind pretty much instantly. Its Kendrick Lamar and Kanye. You could listen to music and still think it sounds good. Its like the same way if Kanye made like, a food dish. You would still think the food tastes good, if it tastes good. But he makes good music, so its good music still. Thats how I think about it.” - Sean Cornejo | Welding Major

Campus Pulse: What are you dressing up as for Halloween?
“I think we should have some pasta here, [and] chicken or shrimp alfredo. I also think they should have put out a survey before we started school, so that we could get an opinionated collection of suggestions for food. Let’s add some more seasoning to the food please, it’s a little bland.” - Ameiah Williams | Music Production Major

“We had our space before Davies Hall closed, but our division office was housed [there]. It’s been positive for us, because now faculty hang out in HomeBase, and we really want faculty involved. I would like to be in Davies, closer to our students, so when they get out of class they see the HomeBase. I think that it may be harder to find us… since we are so secluded it’s really hard to stumble upon us.” - Kaira Bradley | Language and Communication HomeBase Success Coach
Campus Pulse: Do you think your classroom space is adequate?
“Most of my classes are in Davies Hall, so I don’t really know what I am going to do. Honestly a lot of people I can tell already are frustrated, because it’s so sudden as well.” - Rocky Berry | Psychology Major
Campus Pulse: How do you feel about Davies Hall closing?
“I’d say I get seven hours of sleep on a daily basis. It’s definitely beneficial when I get enough sleep, but the times that I don’t I feel like it’s a wasted day because my cognitive function goes down. It feels like brain fog.” - Rebecca Hughey | Psychology Major
Campus Pulse: How does sleep affect your studies?
“This is the hardest part of the semester, that’s why we should push hard and keep our motivation up. Also when we approach the finals we should remember to go back and review everything we did during the semester.” - Kololia Tenorio | Nursing Major
Campus Pulse: What are some tips to survive the rest of the semester?
“I wasn’t really a Kings fan, but I’ve been watching them lately and I went to a couple games and now I am actually happy about it. [The atmosphere at the arena] is really cool, people are jumping around, screaming and yelling. If I get to go to [a game] I am going to go crazy.” - Azariah Gautier | Undecided Major
How do you feel about the Kings finally making the playoffs?
“I’m a person who likes the sunny weather and I like to be outside when it’s clear, so when it’s raining I’m less motivated. All of my activities are outside, so if I can’t do anything outside, it makes me want to study less and do less homework.” - Michael Sanders | Kinesiology Major
