Jay Strong | WC Intern For most people, mer is the only time of the year they feel they can truly relax, have a good time, and take a breather from work or school. For those of us who Summertime is the one season when you have the most time to bond with your friends and family, form lasting memories, and either have a summer job, or an extended playtime before school starts up again. So what do most of us do during the Summer months that help us have these happy Summer go to school, memories? ophevpepsee Summer is the season of travel for students on break and anyone else who can af- ford to take the time off work. Its also the time of year when gas prices usually be- - gin to rise, due to higher de- mand for gas. Keep in mind that during the past five to ten. years gas prices generally are the highest between Memo- rial Day (May 31) and Labor Day (early September), you can plan your trip ac- cordingly. Anyone planning a Summer trip should ask themselves these questions: Should I just wait until the Fall, when gas prices are a bit cheaper, the climate is more tolerable, and there are no bugs? Or could I save money by taking a train, plane, bus, or by carpooling? All these questions depend on your financial situation, whether youre going alone or with others, and, of course, where you plan to travel. Summer vacations can have different purposes: to visit an exotic location like the Caribbean or Alaska, to see distant friends or rela- tives, or to just take a road trip to a place in America youve never seen. Travel- ing can always unexpectedly turn disastrous, but even bad events can eventually turn out to be great memories. But for many of us, and most of you reading this ar- ticle (students or faculty at _ WCU), there is the reality of needing to find a Summer job or internship. Especially for rising seniors and new gradu- ates, Summer is no excuse to not try to earn some money on the side, or prepare for . your professional career. Sum- Rope North Carolina and WC U Brittney Burns | Staff Writer Western Carolina Uni- versity is proud to be having one of our own starting his fifth term as the state Sen- ate representative for Davie and Rowan counties. An- drew Brock won the primary election in early May, and will continue his political ca- reer in January 2011. Brock graduated from Western in December of 1997 with a double major in political sci- ence and economics, After attending Appala- chian State University his freshmen year, Brock trans- ferred to WCU to continue his education. When describ- ing the difference between our rival university and his alma mater Brock confessed, I had to travel through hell to be able to realize how good heaven was. Admit- ting he first transferred to WCU for a girl, Brock is now able to thank professors such as Dr. Livingston and Dr. Mercer for validating his choice. wrock said, Dr, Liv- ingston and Dr. Mercer were the first professors I had that wanted to actively engage students in their classes and opened themselves up on a personal level, which en- couraged me to want to learn and progress. Brock was adamant in crediting the dedication of his WCUs professors and 1. their ability to detect his strengths and weakness for challenging him as a student and ultimately driving him to excel in his career. When he wasnt hard at work in his classes, Brock was busy with intramural sports such as flag football and ultimate Frisbee. Brock the ultimate Andrew Brock alongside his wife Andrea and daughter Scarlett. Frisbee championship, We had a pretty good team, ae ably the best on campus; on the day of the championship only two of us showed up to play. We were a little con- fused at first on where the rest of our team was, until we remembered it was the first day of trout season. Every- one else spent the day fish- ing; the fish tasted too good later that night to stay mad. Indicative to Brocks ca- reer, he spent a lot of his time working with the Student Government Association; he was a senator for the SGA as well as vice president and president of the student body. While Brock was president, Chancellor Bardo began his . first year at WCU. Brock was grateful for Bardo be- cause he raised the bar for all students by pushing them to their limits in order to make them better. During Bardos first year he con- stantly preached about. the importance of raising the bar, which is a phrase that Brock is proud to say he still uses and lives by every day. When asked what advice he would give to students, Brock was enthusiastic in Photo Submitted explaining the importance of internships during your col- lege career. He believes in the importance of internships so much that he has imple- mented an internship pro- gram for the North Carolina Senate. offices. When he be- gan working the Senate only had four intern opportuni- ties; with Brocks help, they now offer over 100 different intern positions. Brock said, The people you meet and the experience you gain dur- ing an internship will ben- efit you for the rest of your career in ways you couldnt ever imagine. Brock also advises stu- - dents to take things slow or as he put it, dont get your cart before the horse. He ex- plained that if students take things one year at a time its less overwhelming and. they will do better in the long run. In the future Brock plans to stay close to his home in Raleigh. He enjoys his job and wants to continue repre- senting our state for as long as the citizens allow him to; he said he will be taking his own advice and take things one ear at a time and, see what happens.
