What is your favorite aspect of college life?
“Having more freedom because it is easier to work around your schedule and being able to do things when you have the time to do them.”
Would you say most of your learning comes from inside or outside of the classroom?
“Most of my learning comes from outside the classroom through doing homework and studying the material and also being able to expand your knowledge on the subject even more.”
What new interest or courses of study have you discovered at college?
“I have developed an interest into looking into different aspects of businesses and expanding my knowledge on how they operate. I have also enjoyed my general education classes as I have learned more about the subjects than I previously knew.”
In what ways has the college experience changed/improved you?
“I have grown more as a person by getting to experience a different world and have gained valuable skills that will be important in my future career.”
What advice would you give an incoming college freshman?
“Develop a schedule so you can stay organized.”
Congratulations and good luck in the future, Makayla!
