We polled junior and senior Jayhawks to get their top 10 pieces of advice to younger Jayhawks. Here are their replies, along with helpful links from our writing staff.
Every professor you will ever have at KU wants you to do well. Read your syllabus at least once, and if you still need help or clarification on an assignment, don’t be afraid to reach out to them! If you need to get in touch with your professor but don’t know their email or office location, you can look them up in the KU Directory.
KU advisors are pros at helping students to find their unique path ahead, as well as options for changing course if you want to try something new! You can schedule an advising appointment by visiting the College Advising & Student Services, or just walk in.
You can also find a professional mentor through the KU Alumni Association! These mentors are KU graduates who were once in your shoes, and now have experience they can share with you to help you get ahead.
Fun fact: KU offers a time management guide to help keep you on-schedule, on-track, and stress-free.
Many students aren’t aware that you can conduct research on just about anything — even if it’s not in your major or field of study! If you are interested in research, the best place to start is by chatting with a favorite professor and cheking out the Center for Undergraduate Research.
Be you. College is a time to explore, discover, and become the person you want to be. The right mindset helps with that, and CAPS offers 24/7 support as well as traditional counseling services if you ever forget what a go-getter you truly are.
There are so many different clubs, events, and activities just for KU students. Do that thing you love to do — or discover something new! Whatever you’re interested in, you’ll find it at Rock Chalk Central.
The University of Kansas has tons of activities, but it doesn’t stop there. The city of Lawrence is full of diverse people, cultures, and interests, and offers a range of choices for people like you who want to try something new, or continue to do what they love! Check out some of the options at Lawrencefolk.org.
Want to get out of the dorm and do something as soon as you can? Here are upcoming events put on by many of KU’s different services!
A good planner can make a world of difference when it comes to staying organized. The KU Bookstore has tons of planners available, and all KU students have access to Microsoft Office’s Calendar app.
