I believe• losson about people is one of th• most imporblnt to learn becaust no matter "'here rou are, what profession you art in. or wbatschoo1 )'Ou go to, tJ1e f.tc;1 0(1hc m.tttcr is, )'OU art going to have to inicract ,,ith people.

I have learned to communicate \\'ilh others whose pcrsonaltlies dash with mine. I, like anyone else, 1end co bt l'nore comfortable with thos., who think and ace like me. I'm typically a goofy. outgoing. optimistic. emotional type of person. But those ,...,,ho a.re different from me- lhose who arc lturoverk•d, scoic, Jogical, mature- intrigue: me. 1hey're lik:t a pu:tz.le 1 ran'c figure ouL I ha\'e learned that 1he stcttc 1s knowing th.at every pers.on has a S,trength and \\'hen t'ncouragcd to use a.nd utilize 1h;.11 st.rcngth, their p<1cen1ial bccom"' evident. Th• key lo finding thos., strengths is 10 listen 10 chem. Take the time 10 get 10 know then, bdore passing chem by. I hnve learned that this proce5:) rtquirc.s one co exercise patience: jus1 as diamonds don't come. out of coal without a bit of hard work. so too do people rtqulre a little pe.rslstence. but they are worth it iJ1 the end.

People want 10 be understood. Nobody likes feeling left out.

If )'Ou look on .oci~l media, there aro thousands of post, •bout just ~\i.shmg someone wc;.uld take a mmute out of Iheir day to stmply listen 10 them and attempt to understand who they arc and \,•hat makts chem who they are.

They say •don'c judg, • book by iu co,'tr• and though it's clichr. it's true. No matter how boring, messy, or damaged the cover is.. you never know how the book is going to turn out until you reaJ it. h could simply take• p,ge or n,ading to find out you an, intcresccd, or it could i.kc a couple of chapcer,.

I an, h<rc to t•II )'OU, that the lime ii takes you 10 read. whether days or y<m, che possibllicy of making• rnend, in chc end, is wonhwhile.

"I felt in awe," Shepherd said. "It's ddforcnt whtn you actu:dly sec the things discussed ,.n histO<)' nght before your eyes.· llxplonng the streel5 of London, se<mg lhe I IOU$0$ or Parltament and visiting Edinburgh Castle were only a few of the things that Shepherd did this summ<r after ••king a course called Cont<mpor,ry World Cultures (FLAN 207).

•1 had a really great experience; Sh,pherd sold ·1 enjoyed gcuing to know all of the people lo my class and even my profossor,."

When Shepherd first heard about the cour"' from her English fnstrnctor. Aa,ron Cloyd. she said it sounded amazing. Cloyd tncourage<I ho> studtnts 10 consider iaking It in tl,e spring. Inspired, Shepherd took 1he le.1p und sign\.-d up.

A.<ide from hearing dlfrerent acccnls, 1,·•lklng on the lcfi sidt of the sJ<lewalk was another cuhur:ll -adjusunent for Shepherd ind her classmates.

NIC Volleyball Dominates Regular Season

By Gtrry ~1'Cr..,.. Spuru Cd1J01

NIC voll<yball blew past the competition this S<3SOn. and finished with the best rtcord in Khool hbtOI")' since joining thr NWAC (Northwest Athl<tic Conference(.

Toe Cards end«! tho season on a JS-game win s1tt-ak. wen1undcicatcd in con(creucc play .ind finished number one in thC' final NWAC coaches poll of the ooason with• 16·0, 27-3 record.

This rear$ team was stacked with talent a.nd featured many players near the top of multiple statislica.l categoric:.. induding star outside- hitter Journq1 1\lpca. who led tht Cards in total kills and was named Adidas Voll.yball 1\lhleic of the Weck in the final w«k of 1he se;.son.

AU se;.,.'io11 I lokuleiJ Vargas was one oithd,e;t In the NWAC at scttmg up her lcamm,u~ and ended up with the fourth•mos1 assi-.tt ln the conf,rtncc.

Second-yr~, player,; Chloe Knudson and Kynicy Mit,.el anchored the backlinc and \\f.'re among the best In the NWAC in coming up with digs.

One of the biggest surprises of th• season wa,; 1hc loud and impactfuJ crowd that gove NIC on clcctril)fog home-court advanlag<'. Tot student sec1io11 WJS ooticcnbl)' larger than previous seasons. and was mostly made up of other NIC student-athletes.

•This vcar we have an awesome ~tudcnt section ..: Mitul s.lid. "They re-ally bring us energy:· NIC in•intained their fierc. rivalry wilh last year's champion.

The Cards had two huge victorie.s o,,,. the Sosquatcb, the only losses Spokane bo.s sofftrcd smct 2017. anJ provc...-d NlC was the best In the P.ost Region.

One or the o,tly glaring problems surrounding this roar$ squad was th,,t they often played 10 ,he quality of their opponents and would frequently start slow in the fin.t set.

Tho Card, played some close S<:tS a~nst teams whh uoder .500 r,xorJs, whkh wo1s unusual for :a team or their calibtr.

"We've kind of been in a slump almost~ Knudson said. ·we always pull It out somehow, bu1 I wish we could ;us1connect like we do in practice."

NIC wUJ carry .. number..one seed into the 2019 NWAC Volleyboll Chan1p1onship double-climinaLion tournament In Tacoma No,..,mb<r 21-24.
