Spotlights

See below for interviews from MSBA student Luke McConnell and Senior Lecturer Brian Stevens, giving strategies for navigating the virtual environment and insights for success.

What is one thing you are doing to help ensure your success in this new environment?

I am doing my best to keep my usual routine of treating school like a job. From 8 to 5 every “work day” I am in class, working on assignments, or studying with colleagues. Outside of those hours I try to put the books away and enjoy my free time. Sometimes a big assignment or exam requires me to work outside of this schedule, but most of the time I find that if I focus I can get the bulk of my work done inside this window.

What do you miss most about being on Campus?

I miss office hours.  Meeting with students in person and working through problems is different than meeting online.  It's fun live streaming on the internet but I miss actually seeing my students.
