Hi! I’m Jennifer Schroder and a junior majoring in communication studies with a minor in sociology. I’m from right here in Rock Island and have lived here my whole life. I attended Rock Island High School (Go Rocks!). On campus I’m involved in Circle K, ELCA world hunger, Camp Kesem, and ADs club. I work in the Communications and Marketing office. My friends and family mean the world to me. I am quite addicted to France and anything with the Eiffel Tower, as well as the color purple. I love to have fun and laugh! Join me in my blog adventures!
20 days remain
Only 20 days until graduation! I cannot believe my time at Augustana is coming to a close. I am filled with mixed emotions. Ever since senior year began I could not wait to receive my diploma. I am still excited, but now the sadness has crept in. A few months ago, I thought, “Oh, I have plenty [...]

But during the whole day, I could not stop smiling. Before I go any further, let’s rewind so you all know what the heck I’m talking about! At the [...]

26 hours
In 26 hours my finals will be over and fall break will officially be here! I have my political sociology final, senior inquiry presentation, and senior inquiry paper all tomorrow. It’s going to be a crazy/stressful day. Nothing exciting is planned for break. Just some good family time (it’s very much needed). I’ve also really been wanting [...]

I’ve been pretty stressed out these past two weeks, but only one week until fall break! So close, yet so far away. I had my practice presentation today for my senior inquiry project. [...]

The beginning of the end..
Hello everyone! I apologize for my lack of blogs over the past few months. Summer kept me busy with work and just taking a break from school. I still can’t believe that I’m a SENIOR! People are right when they say your college years fly by. I feel like it was just yesterday that I [...]
