I Can See Clearly

With the beginning of the semester and that feeling of the unknown that comes along with new professors and new classes with new expectations, I often feel overwhelmed and nervous and sometimes wonder why on earth have I done this to myself?

Then something happens, I get into the groove, the expectations are clear, the clouds begin to part and I feel better. Occasionally, there are things that make things perfectly clear. Today I got something in the mail that has done just that.

Dear Carnealian:

I write to congratulate you on your academic performance during the 2006 fall semester. As a result of your performance, I am pleased to inform you that I have placed your name on the Dean's List, a distinction conferred on students who achieve an average of 3.4 or higher for the semester.

Your work last semester is a clear indication of commendable effort and superlative achievement. You should be proud of this significant accomplishment. I hope that you will take time to reflect upon the efforts that lead to your success as a means of continuing in the same strong manner into the future.

Again, I congratulate you and wish you continued success.

Sincerely,

Vice President for Academic Affairs/Dean of the Faculty

Congrats! Keep up the good work!

Makes me wonder what my average is. HA! I don't think my school has a Deans list!

Congrats. Now aren't you glad you put out for all those teachers?

It sometimes takes your profs even longer than the students to get back into a groove. Some of us never get there.
