almost done

This term will be over on March 3.

Just one more eight-week term. I'll be taking Survey of American Lit and Intro to Anthropology. And then I'm done. Graduation is May 3 or something like that, but I can't afford to go to New Hampshire. My last official day of class is May 5. Excited for it to be over (no more stress).

But more excited about what I found in my inbox this week:

headerpres_1
President's List for students with a 3.7-4.0 GPA

And invitation to join these honor societies:
alphachi

alphasigmalambda

sigmataudelta

Now I just have to come up with the membership fees. $70 for Alpha Chi, $40 each for the other two. Plus $150 for graduation.
Talk about padding my resume.

First - congrats!!

Second - I'd research these before paying any dues. Depending on what you're planning to do, you could end up just flushing money down the toilet. It's possible that these are more for padding graduate applications than resumes (I'm only speaking from my experience with resume writing). Better a well deserved party in that case ;)

Congrats!

I think it would be better to be a little picky with which ones you join- I lived on campus, so it was more social for me, but you've got different priorities (also, responsibilities, which I was mostly avoiding at that point in my life).

But I will say that I was a member of Sigma Tau Delta. We always called it "STD" and when we held our initiation, in one of the smaller social rooms, the security guards thought we were showing a health movie!

But, well done, you! Just being asked to join means you're pretty awesome ;)
