Body Copy Summer vacation is that time of year awaited by every student on campus. At last we are free to enjoy time with our friends without the worry of homework and exams. Many students go back to their hometown to see family, old friends and catch up on much needed sleep. They take pleasure in long, sun-filled days at the beach, followed by cool, breezy nights; nights in which many enjoy summer movie releases. Students also take summer vacation as an opportunity to participate in internships related to their fields of study. This is a great way to get some work experience without running into the problem of it interfering with school. Some internships are paid, which allows for saving up for the next school year. Summer vacation is also a time when students take classes in order to get ahead in school. Some take the option of taking classes at universities back home while others stay around the UF campus. It is widely known that some classes are easier to succeed in over the summer than they are during the regular school year. Therefore, students take advantage of this during their vacation. No matter what they are doing, UF students look forward to summer vacation all year long. We look forward to that time when classes are over, finals are gone from our minds, and the only thing that matters is that warm feeling of summer fun. -Carmen Bustillo Back to Album Previous Next Matt Dean, Leslie Veiga, Allison Cullin and Melissa Bersach take in the sites at the nation's capital. photo provided by: Leslie Veiga Brittany Black Friends at UF Anesia Bums Sandy Chiu
