And We're Progressing Forward


Video projects are something that I’ve got very little experience with, but from watching countless YouTube videos, I’ve decided to style my video as if it were a vlog. For my video, I decided to focus on the topic of Campus Life when it comes to campus activities and clubs. I feel that it’s important to get involved and know what’s going on around you this way you can do more than just sit in your dorm or spend time doing not much of anything with your friends. The questions I’m trying to find answers to are: “What is there to do on campus?”, “How easy is it to find stuff to do on campus?”, and “How easy is it for commuters to find clubs to join when some of the meetings take place later in the evening?” I feel these questions are important because there is quite a lot to do and get involved in on campus, and most people aren’t very aware of what there is to do. It took the club fair for me to see what was here, and it took me by surprise how much there is to do and get involved with. It also occurred to me that a lot of these clubs have meeting that take place at night, and I have quite a lot of commuter friends, so I wanted to know what they would do if they wanted to join clubs that have meetings later on in the day. These questions seem important to first year students because getting involved early on is something they can add to their resumes and it will show that they’ve become more knowledgeable about the campus from the very start.  In my video, I’ve decided to ask everyone the questions, and see what their responses are. Most of the people I’ve interviewed are a mix of residents and commuters, so it’s nice to see both sides of the spectrum.
