Post-Spring Break Tip

JUST SAY NO to more ORGS!!!

No not orcs, though they’re scary too. Just say no to that other organization that has just asked you to join. One common epidemic on Stetson’s campus is a propensity to collect organizations like Boy Scout badges. There are some fantastic organizations on this campus, and yes there are some that you should definitely be in. BUT, you cannot be in all of them. You cannot even be in half of them. They’re just aren’t enough of you. So take time and evaluate how you are spending your time. Why are you in each of the orgs that you are in? Do they fit in with your goals for your time here at Stetson? Do they make sense with the career you’ve chosen? Do you enjoy it? Are you truly helping them in their vision? If the answer to any of those questions is no, you might want to consider bowing out. You only have 24 hours a day and they must be used for the things that are the most important to you, such as CLASS and those few orgs that mean the world to you, and vice versa.

Stay curious,
