One of my favorite orgs that I chose to be a part of this year was USC’S SCIA (Southern California Indo-Americans). I applied to be on E-board as on a whim at the beginning of the semester because I wanted to join a club that would connect me to my culture.

In all honesty, there was a period early on when I wanted to leave USC. It was short-lived but it was definitely real and I really wanted to give in and just take the easier, more comfortable path and go home. That’s what I did my freshman year at Syracuse. I pretty much decided almost immediately that I wouldn’t be staying for long. Had there been no COVID-19 imprisoning me in my 103-degree dorm room with no air conditioning, (no I’m no kidding it was actually that temperature in the room one day,) and impeding me from going out and meeting people, and the fact that 80% of the time my classes were virtual, I honestly feel like I may have come to love Syracuse and I would have stayed until graduation. Regardless of using COVID as an excuse, I didn’t give Syracuse the chance it deserved.

Taking 20 credits can be a lot and it can be especially overwhelming if you have a work study on top of all of it. Though with some organizational skills and setting limits for yourself, having a work study while taking 20 credits can be surprisingly manageable. I’ve shared some of my tips on how I’ve made it work this semester while taking 20 credits and having a work study job as part of the USC Student Life team in Student Affairs.

After being away from campus for so long, my friends and I itched to attend USC events whenever we can. APASA’s Cultural Arts Expo is one of the organization’s flagship events. It’s also Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month at USC, and we’re Asian, so of course my friends and I had to check it out.
