Happy New Years Eve!
In 2012, life-as-a-lumberjack’s resolutions are:
to find a better balance between text and photo posts.
to continue helping students adjust to college life.
and to appreciate the diversity of the students who attend NAU.
Have a great New Years. Be safe!

Anonymous asked: At this point, it is so close to the start of next semester that it may not be possible to change roommates if they've given you an assignment. Most of these assignments happen directly through the RHD, not necessarily through ResLife. It may be better for you to wait until the semester starts to work it all out. This process would be handled internally within the Residence Hall you've...
Anonymous asked: So when is the dean's list typically released?
deadpanawesome asked: Re: Roommate changes - Call Residence Life!

This happens a lot for them, and they were able to fix it when it happened to me.

Random weirdness -
Did you guys know that ASU final exams begin on a Thursday and U of A’s final exams begin on a Friday? That’s so… weird. I feel like that would stress me out. Additionally, ASU begins their spring semester on a Friday, while U of A’s spring semester begins on a Wednesday.
I mean, at least NAU has a reason for beginning the spring semester on a Tuesday (that Monday is MLK...

amandalorian asked: On the books subject, I'm paying only half of what I would buying from NAU by buying them from eBay and amazon type places instead. If you're strapped for cash and you've got the time, doing the research and finding the best deals may be worth your while. Just thought I'd share!

Question for students in the Honors Program -
Do you guys have to do anything extra for the honors courses in your major? Like say you take PSY 250H, is it any different from PSY 250 in terms of workload?

Anonymous asked: I'm worried my GPA may land me on academic probation. Does this mean I'll have to meet with my adviser when I come back from break?
Anonymous asked: Do you give studying advise?
Anonymous asked: I got a 3.5!! That's the highest I've gotten ever. I hope everyone else did well. Happy holidays :DD
Also, grades aren’t technically “final” until the 30th, so teachers can still make changes within that time.

Textbooks are cheaper now than they will be in a few weeks. To see what your spring textbooks are, go to LOUIE and select my class schedule under student center. At the bottom of this page, there is a link “buy books - NAU bookstore” and there you go.

What’s the NAU version of the Tempe 12? The Flagstaff Four. Why? Because we couldn’t find 12 attractive girls.
