From my experience at Palm Beach Atlantic University, I have gained a great deal of wisdom and been placed in some situations that are nothing short of unique that have allowed me to grow in countless ways. From Experiences abroad including an accidental arrest in India, to volunteering and leading community service projects in my local community; PBA has been an ideal place to show that you do not have to have much to give a gift and touch a life. Sitting on campus one mile from one of the richest places on earth to the east and one of the neediest places in the country to the west is a perspective that cannot be gained at very many schools. PBA is truly a one of a kind school and a one of a kind experience showing that there is more to a university than you can ever gain from a pamphlet. ..oh and the classroom learning is great too!

The point of going to college is to receive the best education possible in order to pursue the career of choice; however, what most students fail to realize is that college is not just an academic institution of preference, but rather, a complete lifestyle. I have personally grown in so many different ways since I started attending Palm Beach Atlantic University two years ago. College has become so much more than an education. During the last two years I have discovered myself as a person, been actively involved in the community, held many diverse leadership positions on campus and I have also learned how to be a more rounded individual. Palm Beach Atlantic University has enabled me to develop into the well rounded person I am today. During my last two years at pba I have given back to the community through workship opportunities, and I have also held leadership positions such as orientation leader for freshman, and Resident assistant for my hall. In conclusion I have learned how to better cope with change, conflict, and stress. College has opened doors and taught me how to succeed, how to be a leader, and how to thrive as an educated individual.

During my college experience, I made a handful of lifelong friends and worked hard to learn as much as I possibly could. Due to how closed-minded many of the people on campus were, I learned a lot about how I don?t want to act towards others. Overall, I grew as a individual and academically.

college is a great experience. It gives you an opportunity to learn, interact with students and grow as an individual. i have personally grown to mature and look at the world in different perspectives. i have learned that you cannot conquer what you dont confront in life. That whatever i put my mind to i can achieve it.

College has taught me some of the most valueable life lessons. I finally got the chance to be on my own. I had no fear surprisingly and began to take my role as an independent adult. I now have no fear of being on my own along with the knowledge I now have plus the beginning of my collegiately volleyball career.

I love attending college! It's gives me hope that someday I will have my dream career and be able to help children in other countries speak English! It's extremely difficult to find the financial means to attend college , however, I'm positive that it will be worth it when I am the first of my family to graduate college!

Dear Ruth as a senior, First, you should take time to invest in your teachers as much as they have invested in you. When you look back on all they have done for you, you will realize that they did more than the ?job? required. Second, use your time wisely. I know that you think you are using your time to the your best ability, but just because you are taking hard classes, being captain of the soccer team, working at Publix part-time, and attending church weekly, does not mean that you are enjoying life. For instance, classes are there for you to gain knowledge, not just to get the A+ that you desire. Also, this soccer season will be your last, so enjoy every second of it (even the horrible running drills) you will miss it terribly next year. Lastly and the most important piece of advice, build up your friendships! You have great friends that love every inch of you. Do not take them for granted, set aside time for them daily. I tell you this because next year you will be moving to West Palm Beach! That?s right; you got into your dream college!

all the time you still learn and learn

If I could talk to myself back in high school I would've told my self to study harder. I would've also told myself that college was not going to be as easy as I wanted it to be. It's easy to be a high school student and that's not entirely a good thing. I would probaby advice myself to find a high school that's a bit more challenging than the one I attended. I would studied harder for the SATs and the ACTs. I would take college courses that could help me succeed in scoring high on those standardized tests. I would have told myself to try harder and not to settle for anything but the best. I would've also told myself to worrk on my attitude problem and to learn how to be less hot headed and not to take things so seriously. I would probably tell myself to be more socialble because in college good social skills can also get you far. I wish I could back in time and tell myself to build relationships with my teachers, in college that can also help me out.
