During the make up for the End of Year meeting, we learned about the new requirements for the Promise Scholarship next semester and went over the what is to be expected.

During the webinar, we talked about getting back into the semester, talking about GivePulse hours, and new program requirements that are being implemented this semester. With those new requirements being that there will be five scholarship sessions and we are required to go only to two of them, but we still have to go to refresh at the beginning of the semester and an end of semester meeting.

This was the first basketball game I went to for PGCC since I started going here and it was kind of exciting to be apart of it and cheer for my fellow classmates who got the win going 68-54.

During the meeting, I was able to learn about the new changes to the scholarship in the coming spring, such as how there are going to be five different meetings and how I am required to go to only two of them. We also talked about the changes in the new dashboard website with financial aid, like how to navigate it and fasfa.

I was able to gain more insight into the political world and discuss the aftermath of the recent election. As well as learn more about the backstory of one of the district members so I could learn more about how it feels to be in that world of politics.

Even though it was not apart of my major, I did join the meeting to listen in with a friend that was interested in Entrepreneurship. I did come out learning a little about some things about entrepreneurship and some small things to think about in law and government jobs.

During the event, I was able to chill out and have some downtime in the middle of the semester. Seeing other people and talking to some new people did help me relax in the middle of some of the classes I was taking.

Initially I wanted to join the meeting to listen in about potential internships or just learning more about how some organizations work and how to prepare for them. Best buy was one of the things that stood out to me since one of the buildings was relatively close to where I live.
