Back in Anchorage!
Hi there! It's Kate and I'm back in Anchorage for a whole week! This fall has kept me very busy with out-of-state travel, but it has been a wonderful time! I've really enjoyed meeting and talking with all of you at the fairs. I hope the information and brochures you picked up at these events are helpful resources for you to use in your college search. Also, if you filled out an information card or had a scanner sheet, be looking for more UAA materials to arrive in the mail soon!
Next week I leave for my last round of college fairs this fall. I'll be in Philadelphia from the 12th through the 15th, then in Indianapolis the 16th and 17th. Below are the dates and times of the events I'll be attending - hope to see you there!

Midterms
Over the last few weeks on campus students have been taking their midterms. Although, not all classes require students to take tests for their midterm, for example you might have to do a presentation for a class instead. For the classes in which you do take a test it is essential to be prepared for your own success.
To survive the dreaded midterms it is best to know your own learning style and what techniques work best for you personally. For example, I like to make a ton of flashcards for almost all of my classes. In addition, I work better when I can discus the learning material, or when I can teach someone else what I have learned. Also, make sure you have NO distractions around while you are trying to study, since distractions are an easy way to procrastinate. It is also nice to have water/coffee/tea/food… etc. around to keep yourself boosted.
Overall, your first semester in college is a trial and error time to discover what study methods work best for you. If you do not do well on a test do not worry! Just try again until you know how you work when it comes to studying and test taking. It defiantly took me a semester before I settled into my own personal routine.
Good luck and don’t get discouraged,
Lindsay

Thanks to all the students who came to the Oregon-Idaho Border Fair in Ontario, Oregon on Monday and to the students, parents, and counselors who attended the Boise National College Fair yesterday. We had an amazing response at both fairs - you all had great questions and I really appreciate the time you took to talk to me and learn about the University of Alaska! I've got two more fairs during this trip in Idaho Falls and in Twin Falls. I've never been to either city, so I'm really looking forward to meeting you at the fair and to explore your cities a bit!

¡Hola todos!
Soy Kate, y hoy te escribo de Salt Lake City, Utah. Acabo de llegar ayer después de cuatro días en New Mexico. Mil gracias a todos los estudiantes y los padres que vinieron al Albuquerque Convention Center el dia 11 y también a los que vinieron al Santa Fe Community College el dia 13. Tuve la oportunidad para explorar estas ciudades hermosas un poquito y me divertí mucho. Espero que puedo volver al próximo año.
Pues, ayer llegué en Salt Lake City y hoy estoy visitando Snow College en Ephraim, UT entre 10-2. Manana, visitaré Salt Lake Community College entre 10-2 en el Student Union del Redwood Campus. Y finalmente, el sábado estaré representando UAA durante la feria regional en Juan Diego High School en Draper, UT. Las horas de la feria están entre 1-3:30pm. ¡Nos vemos allí!

Greetings from Salt Lake City
Hi there,
It's Kate again, and this time I'm writing to you from Salt Lake City! I just got up here yesterday after spending a few days at recruiting events in New Mexico. Thanks to everyone who came out of the Albuquerque Convention Center on Sunday the 11th and to the Santa Fe Community College fair on Tuesday the 13th! I had a wonderful time visiting both beautiful cities. The wonderfully sunny, 75 degree days weren't too bad either :)
So I arrived in Salt Lake City last night and today I'm visiting Snow College in Ephraim, UT until 2:00. Tomorow I'll be at the at Salt Lake Community College from 10-2 at their Student Center on the Redwood Campus. Then Saturday I'll be representing UAA during the college fair at Juan Diego High School from 1-3:30pm. Hope to see you at these upcoming events!!
Until next time,
Kate.
