Advice for New Students

What words of advice would you give to freshmen starting college?


*I would tell them to get the hell out of their own way and leave their pride at the door!!!


*Listen to everything your teachers tell you and sift the information respectfully.


*ALWAYS, ALWAYS give another person the benefit of the doubt.


*Don’t be so quick to judge any fellow student OR any teacher.


*Show your teachers that you are personally, not just academically interested in what they are teaching and you will gain an ally who will bend over backward to help you out when you need it.


* Send heartfelt thank you notes to teachers that have really helped you out, personally or academically. If YOU don’t tell them that they made a difference…then WHO will?


*Never, never, never, never, never, never, never give up!
