Samantha Furtick, a 19-year-old junior and graphic design major, enjoyed her summer vacation by spending time at Edisto Island, working part time at Target and hanging out with friends as much as possible.
Although she said that she is excited about homecoming 2009, Furtick said her main goal is to just “survive” her classes. “I am ready for all of the major holidays that we get off from school,” she said.
On the other hand, Sarah MacDonald, a 20-year-old integrated marketing communications major, said she cannot wait to take classes because she can already tell that they are going to be “fun”.
She anticipates meeting new people, working out in the West Center, doing group projects, and going out dancing. She said that she wants to “make the most” of this academic year.
However, MacDonald, who is from Goose Creek, said there are some drawbacks to starting a new school year as well.
“When I go to school, I always miss my family a lot,” she said. Therefore, during the summer, she made sure to spend some quality time with her retired father and take her younger sister shopping and to the beach.
Like Furtick, MacDonald also found time to visit with friends and work part time.
No matter how similarly two students spend their summer, they continue to return to campus every year with different expectations.
