My name is Tyler and I will be blogging about my AWESOME life at Lewis and Clark. Throughout my blogs, I hope to teach you more about LC, the lifestyle of a college student at a liberal arts college, and what LC has to offer that you may not get to see outside of a student's point of view.
Well first thing's first.......moving onto campus! My move in experience this semester could not have gone better. The resident advisors or RAs that oversee my hall made moving in a fast and simple process. The campus was popping as students began to move in, and as a second year student who only got to experience a "covid year", I felt a ton of optimism and excitement for the upcoming school year.
As the school year started, it felt good to be back in real classrooms instead of on zoom. The classrooms were all bursting with energy as many students in my classes never had an in person college class before.
One of the reasons why Lewis and Clark is a great liberal arts college to be at is the opportunity to do many things other than school, such as sports! I am a pitcher on the baseball team and during the fall we have a fall baseball season where we practice and scrimmage ourselves. The practices are only a few days a week so it is pretty easy to balance studying, sports, and free time. Being on a team or in a club at Lewis and Clark is a great way to meet new people and cultivate experiences and memories that will last a lifetime!
Right now as students, we are currently finishing up our fall break which is a 4 day break around halfway through the fall semester. It was a much needed break as the exams and homework stress was beginning to pile up. What's cool about LC is that you have the ability to stay in Portland and do a ton of cool things on your break. I fortunately had the opportunity to travel down to LA to just relax and enjoy my time off.
Thanks for taking the time to read my first blog and I hope you continue to stick around so you can learn more about LC!
