Micaela Parker is one of the many students who graduate early from college. She graduated from Oswego a year early.
“I really felt that I was ready to graduate given all of my ‘experience’ in my major, plus, my girlfriend (now fiancée) had graduated last year, and I wanted to get my life going,” she says.
While attending Oswego, Micaela participated in the Fencing Club and Pride Alliance, but once classes started giving more work, she had to stop. She was part of the Oswegonian until she graduated, which was good experience for a journalism major.
Some of the things Micaela will miss include the lake, the freedom and taking random classes that weren’t related to her major. She suggests taking Medieval Lit. She will not miss registering for classes or cleaning the rooms at the end of the semester, like most college students.
Right now, Micaela is taking two classes and doing an internship with the Red Cross to make up for the credits she doesn’t have.
“I am also in the process of interviewing for a big-person job, so hopefully that goes well.”
