'A place of transformation' and change

Issue date: 4/29/09 Section: Opinion & Editorial
For freshmen, sophomores, juniors, seniors and beyond, I recommend embracing every facet of life that presents itself to you. On the last day of high school, a mentor, Shirley Morgan, said, "This life is dead." I get what Shirley means: it is time to move on and move forward.
My life for the past four years has been an awakening to a strength of which I was blissfully unaware. It is incredibly painful leaving behind the University Program Council after three years, as is saying goodbye to a handful of faces that have shaped my college experience. This summer, KEYC in Mankato, Minn., is my new life - a life that I am both excited and nervous for. It is a change that is bashert, - Hebrew for the etymology of destiny, or fate.
Thank you Collegian staff for your hard work and dedication to a successful newspaper. I am pleased that I was a part of such a fantastic publication. Thank you to everyone who has read this all year, and I always appreciated the nice things you would say to me if you saw me somewhere. If you want to follow my adventures, check out my blog at http://mcom225-bmallory.blogspot.com. Finally, to those whom I have offended to the point of hate mail - you know who you are - I leave you with this heartfelt departing thought: Get over it. I was hilarious and you are crazy.
