It’s hard to believe that Friday marks the last day of classes for
Virginia Wesleyan’s fall semester. I wish all students, faculty and
staff well as we head into final examinations.
Students, we
realize that this can be a stressful time of year. Please know that all
of us at Virginia Wesleyan are here to support you. I encourage you to
bring any specific questions or concerns to your professors and academic
advisors, and remember, there are many resources available to help you
navigate final projects and manage stress—among them are the Learning Center, Hofheimer Library, and the Student Counseling Center.
We
have some exciting activities planned for the next several days. If you
are able, please join us for Virginia Wesleyan's Annual Christmas Tree
Lighting on Friday, December 9 (4:30 p.m., Campus Lawn behind Godwin
Hall). We’ll sing carols, light candles and drink hot cocoa and cider
before lighting the tree. Our Late-night Breakfast, another VWC
tradition, will take place Monday, December 12 (10 p.m., Boyd Dining
Center). Come relax and unwind, and I'll be happy to serve you up some
pancakes and eggs.
Best wishes to everyone for a successful conclusion of the fall semester, and special good-luck wishes to all students.
