Hello current students, new students, prospectives, and any others who have become interested enough to read what I have to say. I have been asked to blog whatever valuable, or not so valuable, ideas I have on my mind in hopes that some will enjoy it and become more interested in my beloved Wittenberg. First off, you all should know that I am Clayton Black a philosophy major and art minor, and I just finished my junior year here at Witt. I am currently enjoying my last summer break before my final year. This place in time right before my college career is over has led me to dub my current situation the beginning of the end.
The school year just ended a few weeks ago, and I got to see some of my closest friends graduate and move away from Witt. It was a happy time on campus, while the seniors really showed how much they enjoyed their time a Witt by celebrating for days at a time and spending as much time as they could with everyone before they left. There were many late nights reminiscing of our times together, and lazy days forgetting about the finals we just finished. I had fun sending the seniors all off on their way and realized how different it will be without many of them. But then I saw signs on campus for pre-orientation days and I remember that there will shortly be a new class of Tigers to make memories with. It seems like just yesterday I visited for my pre-o day and was a nervous little kid, and now I’m a not so little kid nervous about my senior year. Moving towards my last year I have seen many students come and go, but the good times just keep coming.
I am going to spend the rest of my summer on Witt’s campus relaxing in the summer sun as much as possible and living it up with the many other students that are staying in Springfield for the summer. I look forward to updating you readers about my adventures and the activity going on at Witt in the future. Hopefully you all don’t get sick of my writing and enjoy your summers.
Keep on keepin’ on
Clayton
