the S II Jun iors focus on academics As a student entered the junior class, he or she gained status as an upperclassman. With half of their college careers completed, juniors looked toward taking their final steps towa rds a degree. Most juniors understood the necessity of fo– cusing on the academic aspects of college. Juniors became more involved in their selected majors. "Changing my major has been like a shopping adventureeverysixmonths," junior Claudia Perez said ."After experiencing several departments over the past two-and-a-half years, I am happy with my most recent purchase of human resources." As juniors chose majors, their schedules be– came dominated with upper-level courses. They realized these courses normally required more studying th an general ed uca tion courses.

Aside from study time, juniors filled their sched ules with projects and group work. "I produced a web site for a cyberspace class," junior Eric Foy said. "At one point, I worked two or three hours a day in the lab on class projects. This time did not include class and study time." The increased load forced students to balance academic, social and sp iritual needs thoughtfully . Everything had to be centered around Christ in order to succeed academically and spiritually. "And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks toGod the Fatherlhroughhim," Col. 3:17(NIV). -Emily Sane Concentrating on her c hemistry lab, junior Sa· rah Eroh mixes a chemical solution.
