The Road Ahead

Spring is here ! A time of renewal and rebirth , with Covid slowly becoming an eerie specter from the past ( we won ’ t miss it ). This means we are able to purposefully forget our face masks at home and that socializing in groups is back where we left it ( probably at M Bar or at a Stamm event - oh how we ’ ve missed those !).

Aaah , yes It ’s time for hope ; for new beginnings for those who are starting their journey as new graduates set on to discover thrilling new career paths . But also for those of us who were already set in our ways , suddenly seeing our lives shift upside down without predicaments towards what was coming our way.

Yes , it was a tough professional period Some of us held on to our jobs for dear life Others weren ’ t so lucky, finding themselves job hunting when the market was drier than a macaroon I baked in my AP Year. A few of us even went to extremes , taking on completely new directions and ventures . Some new graduates took the period to unwind and wait for the better tides to come Others bellowed , rightly wondering when they would get their chance to shine in the job market

So yes , my dear AEHL colleagues around the world , it ’s time for us to celebrate in unison . We applaud the fact that we ’re starting to see the sun and that we are equipped to stir our lives in the direction we want, regardless of the virus - that - must - not - be - named seemingly blocking our vision

Hoping to reflect this positive sentiment of change , our May eJournal ’s theme is ‘ Transformation ’. We will discuss the EHL name change , why it was necessary, and have internal talks with inspiring people ( be it past and current students , academics , and staff members ) to get their insights on what this renewal means to them

Just as with the shy caterpillar that turns into a splendid butterfly, our EHL bubble grew into something beyond our wildest aspirations . And Spring is a great time for your mind to bloom . Open your thinking to the wonderful possibilities starting to pop like daisies and behold while the world flourishes around you

Your AEHL team is excited to announce a new collaboration with the Honeybee Team for the production of this eJournal . The Honeybee team is proud to be a part of this movement by taking EHL’s hand and , together, transforming the newsletter to reflect this thrilling period of change We hope that this new, more dynamic , and interactive eJournal presentation reflects the road ahead and inspires you to remain connected with our worldwide family on a more regular basis
