First-Year Student Testimonials

(Sarah Conrad continued)

"I thought the seminar was really helpful. Not just in teaching us new things that are expected of us in college, but also in enabling us to meet new people. Our seminar class was full of different people — those who played sports and those who didn't, and it was a great way to meet new people and have connections outside of your friend base. Our seminar class was really close and we still are today everyone always greets you with a smile and we still hang out with each other even though class is over. I made a lot of friends who I will now have for the next three years just because we had that class together.

I would have to say different people provided different things for me in my seminar. Some were really good to study with, made sure I got my work done, and were also good at helping answer questions about any of the assignments. Then, I also had friends who I would hang out with outside of class and on weekends. I even met one of my best friends in that class and we are still extremely close today."
