I initially thought this was going to be a formal conversation where Vice President Lombardi was just going to give us information about the plans for the Spring semester. But it was the complete opposite. He allowed everybody to introduce themselves and genuinely seemed to want to get to know everybody. He was open to possible suggestions to improve next semester and made sure to answer everybody’s questions to the best of his ability. He even promised to get back to people who asked questions he couldn’t answer during the talk. The energy he brought to the talk gives me confidence that the Spring semester will run smoother than the Fall semester. The conservation was really helpful for me because people asked questions about topics that I wasn’t initially thinking about, but will also affect me as well.
