As I got to my class all the things I felt were gone away I was ready to tackle this class. My first class was a new student seminar pretty interesting class what had got me was the homework I was not sure if I was able to do it. All I had to do is stay focused which I was for the first month then I started to lack. My second class was actually one of the easiest that I knew I was going to for sure
Well, there are many students that do not head straight home after classes end, like the student mentioned above. Some stay after to discuss things with classmates, speak with their professors in their office, study, or even grab a late meal. Also, during two weeks of every semester, Oviatt Library has extended hours to 11:00 pm, even on Fridays. If a highly popular building is open to students, how can a safety service not
well I will tell you in right here in this paragraph. A proper time for students to use there phones you would think would be at lunch or either during passing periods. During lunch we have forty five minutes of social time why not make that with cell phones as well. I know plenty of students probably do it anyways when we are not supposed to, and to be honest I am one of those as well. When we are eating no teachers are around us giving us more lessons.
Since eighth grade I never really took anything the ConnCAP staff said to me seriously; it took me seventeen years to actually understand and realize how important college is and how important having a good education is. They have helped me in many ways by engaging me in meaningful learning experiences for the purpose of enhancing my basic skills and critical thinking. From grades eighth-twelfth, I’ve attended a ConnCAP Summer program for six weeks each summer. This has helped me improve my chances of competing in an advanced society by offering enrichment classes in the areas of math, science and English. During those six weeks I worked on material that helped me get ready for the next grade.
People like teachers, doctors, policemen, and firemen are important. Being someone’s maid or cook doesn’t really get you far in life. In Maya Angelou’s graduating class there were only a few kids graduating and moving on to high school. In Hillside, New Jersey, over 90 percent of students graduate from every grade level and can go to any college they choose. There’s also this program called “ No child left behind” that’s supposed to allow kids who are slower when it comes to learning be able to catch up with the rest of their classmates and move on to the next level of education That’s how schools in 2013 is different from school in the 1940’s we are an integrated nation with the ability to be what we want and have a chance to expand our
Mine include spending an entire weekend with my computer on my lap working on that 24 page final paper for Mr. Hale's class, pausing only long enough to get another cup of coffee! We’ve all had the pleasure of waiting for hours in line to get into the bookstore on the first day of the new quarter, only to wait an hour or longer to get out of the bookstore and then pray that we make it to the first class of the day - on time! We have made lifelong friends, learned to be part of a community and had some crazy adventures. For you, some of those could have been all night study groups with too much food and way too much caffeine, those students involved in sports who had bus trips to away games or the field trips like mine to the Dayton Art Institute (for Art Appreciation) when a few students got lost or one whose car wouldn’t start afterwards. These adventures provided us with fun, stress, and new appreciation as lessons learned by life itself.
Then, in the first day of the chemistry laboratory, we need to choose the group to do all the experiment together for the whole semester. Most of the students have their own group with their friends, but I did not any friends because I am a college freshman. So, I formed a group with him and another college freshman. We really have not talked for a few weeks, even we try to discuss about the experiment because he is too shy around other students and also we cannot communicate orally. So, I found the way to communicate with him by writing, and he started comfortable around the group, and we become a good friend.
Normally one does not reach the legal drinking age during college until about their junior or senior year. Yet, through personal experience and research have shown that more drinking is done in the first years of college. A lot of excess baggage comes with the first year in college, and many students are overwhelmed by and under prepared for the excitement and risks that they will encounter during their first year at a university. From classes to sex, from relationships to drinking, from religion to social clubs, students decide the order in which to try them. Many will notice that there are only laws governing one of these activities, thus drinking becomes the first social pastime in which students engage.
Kendrick Watts Moyer English 1020- 026 10 February 2014 Is College Really for Me…?? In the essay “Is College for Everyone” by Pharinet, discusses that it’s not mandatory to attend a college institution to obtain a well-paying job. In the beginning of the essay Pharient refrains to a statement that students hear every day, “You want get anywhere without your education (635).” This is a statement that many teachers and parents repeatedly preach to their child since they were kindergartener’s. Pharinet also explains in a reasonable tone, that having a college degree doesn’t always bring success in most students’ life. Mainly because, students are not properly preparing themselves to what seems to be the “real world”.
This was the year we actually went into real classrooms in the high school. No separate lunches or classes, we took classes with all upperclassman. It was completely different than the way things were in any other grade. I actually had fun teachers and classes. Yet, when things got tough I went back to my old ways.
