Happy new year, Greetings from CECS!
It’s hard to believe winter term has begun and the energy of campus life is
thriving full force. Don’t waste time mourning the holidays though- this is a
beginning, not the end!
Not only is it a new term, it’s a whole new year, which means each of us has the chance to bring fresh motivation and direction to our
goals. In the spirit of New Year’s resolutions, it’s time to think about
where you want to be in 2012, and what it takes to get there.
Luckily at Waterloo, you’re surrounded by inspiration and insight; when faced with transition, our students truly shine. Don’t miss an article by guest contributor Misakura Tsukimoto in this issue. She shares her experience transitioning into “big business” culture during her work term at Manulife on Bloor.
Or flip ahead to read about Kevin Raymond and Natalie Koay, who worked at Harvard University on a high-profile scientific project. They so impressed their supervisors that Harvard has hired five more co-ops for this term! You’ll also want to check out this year’s winners of the International Week photo contest- it’s not every work term photo that includes the Great Wall or Exit Glacier.
It has been a pleasure serving as Editor and bringing you success stories to motivate and inspire you. Remember that 2012 can be your year. It awaits you, shiny and new...so go on and take a big bite!
~ Andrea.
