This end-of-semester meeting was one I quite needed. Before going in, I was unsure with my credits due to being in a program that can restrict how many credits I can do a semester. Thankfully, I was able to get clarification as I am graduating in the fall.

I felt very informed during this session. I was not initially aware of the MyPGCC portal app. It was also a surprise but great addition to find out about the finals countdown because I truly needed to keep track of when classes would end.

I was very pleased with what I have learned today during this session. I was able to learn about emotional wellness as being my ability to understand, manage, and express stress in a healthy manner. Also learning of how to manage my stress and how a lack of emotional wellness can lead to that higher stress and burnout.

I felt that this was a good event for me to be able to have a refresh of what is to be expected for this new semester. I was able to get clarification of not only the amount of hours needed but what can count as my hours as well.

This meeting was a good overview of what I can expect for the incoming semester. I honestly feel relieved about the new schedule of the new mini sessions and having to make sure I attended the referest and end of semester meeting. With my time becoming more and more concentrated, I am able to pick the 2 sessions of the 5 that I want to attend and ensure I am present in all meetings.

This event actually comforted me after the results of the election. I felt relieve that even with the upcoming changes, the state will do whatever is possible to ensure our protection.
