This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Adelphi chapter and does not reflect the views of Her Campus.
Welcome back panthers! While entering campus for the first time in nearly three months, ourÂ
Â
brains start to wake up from summer vacation mode. Let’s put the parking, and construction noiseÂ
Â
behind us to think about the great qualities of the University. So, what have you missed most aboutÂ
Â
Adelphi?Â
Â
Returning students Dayna Marie and Adisa Velovic both say they missed their friends andÂ
Â
weekly events. “I missed all the volunteer opportunities that the Center for Students InvolvementÂ
Â
offers! I can’t wait to start volunteering again with them.” stated sophomore Carolyn Garcia. As for theÂ
Â
freshman who have nothing to miss, they sure have a lot to look forward too. Jessica D’onofrio says sheÂ
Â
is looking forward to making new friends and getting involved.
Â
Although it seems that students can’t wait to get as far away from campus as possible, thereÂ
Â
are things about Adelphi that are impossible to forget, even after commencement. “I miss being part ofÂ
Â
a close-knit community. I got to work with so many wonderful students, professors, and staff. They allÂ
Â
pushed me to be the best version of myself. I definitely miss being around that.” says Rachel Voorhees,Â
Â
class of ’14 graduate.Â
Â
If this question is challenging for you to answer, take the time to find something that stands outÂ
Â
on campus. Even if it as simple as “the view” that student Brian Jennings says he missed. Who wouldn’tÂ
Â
appreciate the beautiful greenery that happens to be an official registered botanical garden? Bet youÂ
Â
didn’t know that! Good luck and have a great fall semester.
