Before I started to school, I spent hours visualizing the kind of experience I wanted to
have. I saw myself being challenged but managing it easily and without stress. I saw myself
making new friends. I saw myself having a really great time. Most of all I imagined a very
balanced experience - a blend of academics, activities, socialization, and fun.
Real life will of course turn out differently than I visualize. The point of visualization isnt to
predict the future or to restrict your freedom to decide later. The point is to give you more clarity
for making decisions right now.
I enjoy taking courses like:
Criminal Law
In this course the student studies the development of the substantive criminal law and problems
related to its application in modern society.
Constitutional Law
This course provides an introduction to constitutional law, including the origins of judicial
review
Civil Procedure
The course examines pretrial practice, including service of the summons and complaint, the
answer, motions practice, and discovery
College experience is very different than what my high school experience was. But it isnt all
about being a social butterfly. Being on a college means meeting college-level expectations and
doing well in your classes. This is the beauty of college. Our expectations before the start of the
season can quickly be tarnished in a flash. But no matter what happens, October will always find
a way to set the stage for a race like no other month can.
