Hey folks, At this point summer is right around the
corner. There will be a lot of things happening in a
short amount of time this summer. I hope that each of
you is as excited as we are. Shortly, you will be
receiving a summer schedule in the mail. This schedule
only highlights some of the major things that will be
going on, and give you and your parents an idea of when
we will be on campus, and off campus.
Beginning on May 1st we will be conducting our last
round of school visits. This will be our last
opportunity to visit with seniors. I am very proud of
our seniors this year. Each of you have represented the
UBMS program in an exemplarily manner and it hasn't gone
unnoticed. We wish you the best in your future endeavors
and will be in touch with you throughout college.
Remember, we are only a toll-free phone call away.

Ashley’s
Advice
Hey Gang! We are getting close to the summer!! I hope you're
as excited as I am! I can't wait to see all of you again! We
have some fun stuff planned... so be prepared to get a
little dirty... you never know what might happen with a
bunch of RA's like us! I hope school is going well. I'm sure
none of you have Senior-itus ;). (I promise that NEVER
happened to me!! ha-ha). Just try to keep up with school. It's
just as important now as it was at the start of the year. I
know it might be tough to stay focused since the end of the
year is around the corner and it's so sunny outside! I am
looking forward to a great summer! See you all soon!

Hey Gang! The summer is getting closer and closer and I
hope that all of you are just as excited as I am. The
schedule is just about complete and the last phone calls are
being dialed. I can't wait to go out on some of these trips
and getting to eat at all of these great places---yeah,
those are my favorite calls to make---I love to order the
food. I am also really looking forward to going out on
school visits this month. Although I have met most of you
new students at the parent meeting, it will be nice to talk
to some of you as we come out and visit. Maybe finally
putting a face with some of these names.
I'm sure all of you guys are counting down the days until
the end, especially you seniors. You guys have finally made
it! I want to Congratulate each of you. Hearing about all of
the accomplishments and scholarships that you guys are
receiving is outstanding! It has certainly been a pleasure
meeting and being around you guys and I wish you all nothing
but the best in the future. Please keep in touch. For the
underclassmen, don't let up know. Yes, the days are counting
down until summer vacation, but the grades you get now are
just as important as the ones you got in the first week of
school.
Last thing: Yes, I know I type a lot! I just wanna
say....The Tanks are in!!!! Welcome Jessica Bowen to the
program. We're happy to have you. GO SHERMANS!

Academic Tip of
the Day:
Tips for acing short answer tests
- Prepare for the test
by studying off of summary sheets that are
packed with information within condensed space.
Try to categorize the material
- Use grammatical clues
within a statement as hints for the correct
answer
- If you can think of
several answers
for a blank or short answer question, let the
instructor know.
The instructor may give you a clue to the
correct answer he/she's looking for
- A guess made with
common sense
could get you more test points than if you leave
an answer blank.
Don't be a smart aleck if you guess
- Write your short
answers in simple,
telegraphic sentences.
Packing as much information as you can is more
important than literary style.

UBMS Photo Page
Heather Holland
came up with the idea of sharing summer photos with one another
through the internet. She has setup a webpage through
photobucket.com in which UBMS participants can share their photos
and order a CD of photos if they desire. The following are
directions and a link so that you can view and upload your own
photos.
-
save your pictures to a folder on your computer
-
go to
www.photobucket.com
-
put in these two items:
sign in name:
UBMSsummer2005
password:
bubba
-
click on browse and find the folder your pictures
are in
-
double click on the picture (it will bring you back
to the main page) then click submit
-
it’ll take some time
depending on how fast or slow your computer is, but your picture
will load up there.
-
keep adding pictures from the summer, the final
trip, anything to do with UBMS
