Columbus’ Most Social Day: My Post-Midterm Adventure

October 31, 2025, could easily be crowned Columbus’ Most Social Day. There seemed to be something happening at every corner of the city. After a long, exhausting week of midterm tests and a few final exams, I decided it was time to close the books and enjoy some well-deserved fun.

Working Hard and Playing Hard: 5 Takeaways from Playoff Baseball

Hello everyone! I'm back with another blog post! I hope you’re enjoying the crisp October air because today we’re discussing something exciting this month brings—Playoff Baseball! Recently, I attended a Cleveland Guardians playoff game with my classmates from the MAcc program, and it reminded me of the importance of balancing work and play in grad school. In this post, I share five key takeaways from the game, highlighting how playoff energy mirrors the drive for success in our studies, the value of bonding beyond the classroom, and how casual experiences like attending a game help build genuine professional connections. I also discuss the importance of balancing hard work with moments of fun to avoid burnout and how teamwork and leadership show up both on and off the field. Attending that game with classmates was a powerful reminder that grad school isn’t just about academics; it’s about building lasting relationships and creating shared memories that enrich the experience. Enjoy the post, Go Guards, and Go Bucks!
