College is a vital point in all of our lives, as well as a learning experience. For many, it is the first time being away from home, yet a chance to develop a sense of independence. With this comes decision-making: the decision to live a healthy life, regularly attend class, and participate in extra-curricular activities on campus. It is imperative to have a balance between the things we do in and outside of the classroom because employers seek well-rounded people to fill their positions. With this being said, everyone should be getting involved to become a well-rounded individual, to build your resume, and to make the best of your college experience. For those who are unaware of how to get involved at Rowan University, here are some suggestions:
