Pandemic time well-spent pays many dividends for students
Dennis Kelly - Contributing columnist
Has your high school reduced or restricted your participation in student organizations and other extracurricular activities during the COVID-19 pandemic? Maybe your classes are presented in a hybrid or online model?
Have these circumstances of the pandemic, coupled with not being able to work part-time jobs, increased your amount of free or leisure time?
If so, I urge you to not consider this as idle or lost time, or simply an excuse to increase your gaming and social media activity. Use it to make yourself stand out in a crowd of college applicants as you prepare for your future.
