It’s That Time of Year Leads

It’s that time of year again: Cupid is floating around on his cloud, bow in hand, waiting to shoot some poor soul with an arrow of infatuation.

It’s that time of year again when students become familiar with the select group of faces that cover campaign signs mounted on windows and sidewalks across campus.

Diorama Leads

Spring has sprung. The birds are chirping again. The snow of winter has melted. And flowers bloom to welcome the warm air that drifts blissfully in from the south. And social clubs turn their attention to spring rushes.

Insignificant Detail Leads

The roar of diesel engines and the pounding of a hammer – this is the sound of progress at Parker University.

“A Few of  My Favorite Words” Leads

Amazing, beautiful, comfortable, friendly, and warm-hearted _ these were just a few of the words used by four students from Xiangyang City Vocational and Technical College to describe the people, culture, and history they encountered on their trip to America and Parker University.

You think about all the opportunities an education degree could take you, and all the children you can inspire along the way. But you’re also wondering, “What can I be a part of as an undergrad that can reach me closer to my goal, as well as prepare me?”

The SAEA may be your answer, and becoming a member is easy.

The English Major Lead…

Once upon a time, a word was spoken, a single word, and the world of literature, of story-telling and of communication was born. Being an English major, and more specifically a student of rhetoric, I cannot begin to share my appreciation for the art of writing, speaking and communicating. I have been writing since weaned, and it is something I cannot go a day without doing. I write about everything, from over-enthused workers at Books-A- Million (you know the kind, the ones that try to sell your soul to their club card) to my hippie boss at work who throws his shoes at waitresses for fear that I will one day forget something that I always want to remember.
