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!
