On the surface, UR’s add/drop period allows for academic freedom and flexibility. In reality, however, taking advantage of the full length of time is next to impossible. This academic year, classes started on Aug. 26, and the last day to add or drop a class with instructor approval is Sept. 23.

The concept of “home” has always been a bit tricky for me. Sometimes I’ll be in a place I consider home, yet still have the feeling of wanting to go “home,”never quite knowing where exactly that place would be. As cliché as it may sound, home has become a feeling rather than a place. It’s drinking chai with my mom on the couch at 6  a.m. before the craziness of the day begins. It’s sitting in my comfy chair in the dim glow of my string lights, listening to music.

UR’s open curriculum caught my attention when searching for colleges — there was no way I was going to sit through another US history class after my disastrous hybrid AP United States History experience. I was delighted to find that I could instead take something like art or music to fulfill curriculum diversity requirements for graduation. I struggle the most in classes where I feel disinterested in the subject matter.
