They See Me Enrollin’

Hey Friends!

Enrollment happened last week for us first-years.

On the eve of enrollment, discourse was tense.

“I think I’m going to pull an all-nighter in Dinand, I’ve heard the computers fill up fast in the morning. Maybe I should go to the Lobby shop for supplies.”

“I can’t make it to dinner, because even though I’ve tested my ethernet cord 739,302,232 times, I want to just be sure…”

“What if I go to the Worcester Public Library? Is it even open at 7?”

Holy Cross students: willing to sacrifice a night of sleep to get into their top choice classes. I applaud that dedication, but I tried my luck with normal wi-fi, in my dorm and enrollment went swimmingly. 3/4 top choices seems pretty great to me, and my the fourth class I chose is one I’m really looking forward to. Maybe that’s a blessing in disguise of our competitive enrollment, it encourages us to explore classes we may have otherwise ignored.

Of course, I was pretty lucky. Some of my classmates are still working out their schedules and communicating with professors and departments about their options. While it may seem difficult, it’s pretty great that Holy Cross gives us that opportunity. Faculty are extremely willing to help to make sure that each student has a schedule that is meaningful to his/her academic journey.

I hope that everyone finds schedule they are happy with, I know I have.

Happy Thanksgiving and DFTBA!
