By this point in there are no congratulations from us needed because you are an old, crusty, seasoned veteran in this college game. You’ve been in the trenches for the last two years fighting the good fight. You have your study strategies down pat, you know the ins and outs of your campus, you know which days of the week to stay away from the cafeteria. Now it is time to focus on life after college.
CHOOSE A MAJOR:
No more putting it off until next year, next week, or tomorrow. You’ve tested the water for two years, now it is time to pick a specific pool of study, and dive in head first. Scary? Yes. Necessary? You bet it is. So take the plunge.
Note: For those of you who have already chosen a major you need to remember that in the very near future you will be graduating and competing against your classmates for employment. Work on improving and honing your skills. An employer can find 50 people to the basic of a job well. You need to bring something more to the table, something that sets you apart from the rest. Discover your ace and place up your sleeve.
Be a leader:
You are an upperclassman now. Act like it. Set an example for younger teammates on and off the field. Keep a solid G.P.A., be respectful to authority figures, conduct your business properly at all times, show the younger players how to do things the correct way. The progressive development of your sports program is on your shoulders. What type of program will you leave behind after graduation, and, what type of people will you leave it with?
Finally, junior year is the time you need to start preparing yourself for the future. This is the time where you need to break bad habits, choose a career path, be responsible, and start securing the foundations you have built for your right future.
