Where Do We Go From Here? Interview with Professor Alyse Knorr
By: Carly Compesi, Staff Writer
I was lucky enough to interview Alyse Knorr, an assistant professor in the English Department who teaches creative writing and Women and Gender Studies, about college life and beyond. Professor Knorr expressed profound gratitude for where she is now in her career at Regis, and also for the friends, mentors, and teachers who have been there since the start of her journey.
Spring Burnout: the lack of spring break and motivation at Regis
Spring break, much like any other holiday, serves different people in different ways. While many choose to use spring break as a time to travel, go to the beach, and party; others use it to relax and forget about the stresses of college classes and their course loads. This class-free time is a god send to students who are tired and losing motivation because it gives them time to recharge in order to power through the semester with strong grades and a good mentality. In general, spring break serves as a strong benefit to the mental health of students nationwide.
What’s Actually Happening to Work Study Next Year
Over the course of the past week rumors have been swirling about concerns over changes to work study for the upcoming year.
“There isn’t going to be any work study next year”
“They’re only giving work study to freshmen next year”
“People who have never had work study will have priority next year”
“Regis is going to take our federal funds”
I am sure many students have heard one variation of the rumor or another, however there is no need to panic.
