Dedicated to my (maybe) last days at DU

As I struggle to write a final paper after being up since 4am, I've realized two things. First, it's really difficult to write on an empty stomach. Second, that Nanzan may be my last undergraduate experience. At the end of next week I hear back about my acceptance to graduate school at the University of Denver. As much as it would be absolutely bomb to finish in 4 years with a Bachelor's and Master's, I'm getting burnt out with bureaucracy, bad food, and close-mindedness which circulates through this school. Although my attempts at changing the food service is like beating my head against the wall, not to mention the stresses of the RA job...I've realized that DU introduced to me some of my best friends and my favorite teachers. AND even though I despise the amount of water we utilize in groundskeeping, I love how gorgeous this campus is. Pros and cons aside, I am incredibly, incredibly privileged to have the education that I do, as well as the friends, family, and mentors which surround me. So even though I may not go to many hockey games, I'm glad I had my time here at DU. Go Pioneers! Or chicken-hawks? Nobody even knows what our mascot is...
