What should every freshman at your school know before they start?
If I could go back in time to when I was a high school senior, I think I would tell myself to relax a little. As a high school honor student, I was very stressed for going off to college, for a number of reasons. I thought the transition from small high school classes of students that rarely cared about the work and where constantly shooting glances at the clock waiting for the dismissal bell, to a fifty-student lecture hall where I would have to take constant notes on the professor's lectures to pass huge exams, would be a nightmare. I thought wandering around different buildings across an expanse of winding campus paths would also be a major stressor. However, once I got to community college, I was pleasantly surprised. The atmosphere of the entire campus was much more relaxed than I thought; in fact, much more relaxed than high school. So, if I was able to go back in time, I would tell myself these things. I would tell myself to keep an open mind; the students at college are much different than high school students. I would tell myself, that I would be fine.

What do you consider the worst thing about your school? Why?
Its so expensive. Every quarter I have to buy new books. It gernerally cost about $400.00 a quarter to buy the required books. You can sale them back to the school for pennies on the dollar or try to nagotiate with other students . Its a pretty big pain and when your in school every penny counts its amazing to buy a book for $185.00 wow really? do they need to be that expensive?
It seems pretty outrageous to me.

What do you brag about most when you tell your friends about your school?
When I tell friends about my college, there are a few things I brag about. First of all, the atmosphere of the college itself. It's very laid-back, and everyone there actually wants to be there, and is there to work for success, unlike high school. My peers are very professional and think more creatively than the adolescents in high school. Bouncing ideas off of them is very rewarding. In addition, my college offers really fascinating classes. I learn more than I ever did in high school, and about subjects I'm genuinely interested in.

What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?
How hard it was to raise a child and work full time and go to school. I wish I did go to school right after highschool, but you know life happens and life gave me a beautiful son that is everything to me. I do know now it is harder to go back to school and succeed rather than going to college right after highschool since the preperation and skills needed for college are fresh in my mind. Now I have to retrain myself to get back on track and succeed in my son's eyes as well as myself.
