Dear Student,

More than ever before, a college education is an essential step


in preparing you for almost any career. With almost no exceptions,
employers today require that job applicants have a college degree.
Higher education is becoming more expensive, and some
people are questioning whether a college degree is worth the cost.
Yes, college is expensive, but the benefits of a college education are
well worth the price tag. According to current statistics, a college-
educated person receives a better salary and enjoys a healthier life,
more confidence, and a more promising future for his or her
children than a person who does not attend college. Of course we
can all name a few exceptions: Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook and
Bill Gates of Microsoft were college dropouts who still managed to
be highly successful. Such success stories are very rare, however.
While you might have many reasons for being in college, we
hope your primary goals are to learn and ultimately to graduate, and
you will be more likely to graduate if you have a successful first
year. When we were in our first year of college, college success
courses, with few exceptions, did not exist, and there was no
“textbook” like Your College Experience that provided strategies
for making the most of college. Most colleges and universities
allowed new students to sink or swim. As a result, some students
did well, some hardly survived, and some dropped out or flunked
out.
Beyond graduation, some of you will want to continue your
education in professional or graduate school, but others will want to
begin a career. While it may be tough to land your ideal job
immediately, your college education is an investment that will make
you competitive in the marketplace.
You are likely reading Your College Experience because you
are enrolled in a college success course—a special course designed
to help you be successful. Although this book might seem different
from your other textbooks, we believe that it could be the most
important book you read this term because it’s all about improving
your chances for success in college and in your career. This book
will help you identify your own strengths, as well as areas where
you need to improve. We know that if you apply the ideas in this
book to your everyday life, you are more likely to enjoy your time

9
in college, graduate, and achieve your life goals.
As college professors, researchers, and administrators with
many years of experience working with first-year students, we
know that starting college can be challenging. But through your
college success course, the faculty, staff, and academic resources on
your campus will help you meet that challenge. Welcome to
college!

about the authors

John N. Gardner brings unparalleled experience to this authoritative text


for first-year seminar courses. He is the recipient of the University of
South Carolina’s highest award for teaching excellence. He has twenty-
five years of experience directing and teaching in the most respected and
most widely emulated first-year seminar in the country: the University 101
course at the University of South Carolina. He is recognized as one of the
country’s leading educators for his role in initiating and orchestrating an
international reform movement to improve students’ transition to college.
He is also the founding leader of two influential higher education centers
that support campuses in their efforts to improve the learning and retention
of first-year college students: the National Resource Center for The First-
Year Experience and Students in Transition at the University of South
Carolina (sc.edu/fye), and the John N. Gardner Institute for Excellence in
Undergraduate Education (jngi.org), based in Brevard, North Carolina.
The experiential basis for all of John Gardner’s work is his own miserable
first year of college, which he spent on academic probation—an
experience that he hopes to prevent for this book’s readers.

seminar faculty training workshops around the United States and in other
countries, and she is frequently called on to evaluate first-year seminar
outcomes. She currently serves as Senior Scholar in the Gardner Institute

"Wheel Animals, though found with most Certainty in Leaden


Gutters, etc. are often discovered in the Waters of some Ditches,
and likewise in Water that has stood a considerable Time even in
the House; for I have often met with them, in sufficient Plenty, in a
Sort of slimy Matter that is apt to be produced on the Sides of
Glasses and other Vessels, that are kept long with the Infusions of
Hay or other Vegetables; and probably they are wafted thither by
the Air, when in the Condition of little dry Globules."

[256]

Gosse's account of the "Structure, Functions, and Homologies of


the Manducatory Organs in the Class Rotifera" (in Phil. Trans.
1856) remains as the most complete anatomical account we have,
though his attempt to identify these parts with the modified limbs of
the Arthropod mouth has met with no support from subsequent
workers. Gosse rendered these parts clearly visible by the use of
dilute caustic alkali.

[257]

A modification of this type is seen in the parasite Drilophagus,


where the unci and rami are two-pronged at the end, but the trophi
are not movable on one another, but protrusible as a whole to
serve as an organ of attachment to the Oligochaete Lumbriculus,
to which this Rotifer attaches itself. See Vejdovsky, "Ueb.
Drilophaga bucephalus," etc., in SB. Böhm. Ges. Jahrg. 1882
(1883), p. 390.

Similarly Hudson and Zelinka both regard the dorsal antenna as


formed by the coalescence of two antennae. These retain their
distinctness in Asplanchna; in some Bdelloida the single antenna
is supplied by a pair of nerves.

It does not appear to us that Zelinka is justified by his account of


the development in regarding this cup as other than a part of the
disc.

[269]

The classification we have adopted is a modification of that made


by Hudson and Gosse; we have divided up their first Order
Rhizota into two, and split off from Flosculariidae the family
Apsilidae; removed the Asplanchnaceae from the admittedly
heterogeneous Order Ploima, made distinct families in the Ploima
for Microcodonidae and Rhinopidae, and created a third new
Order for the Seisonaceae. Ehrenberg, Gosse, and Hudson, being
the authors of most of the genera, are designated by their initials
only.

[270]

This second species has also been found in the Northern United
States.

[271]

This Order has been monographed recently by Janson in Abh. Ver.

In Denk. Ak. Wien, vol. vii. 1854, 2 Abth., p. 15. As has been
suggested by Deby and by Daday, it is not impossible that
Hexarthra is identical with Pedalion (and in this case the latter
name, as newer, should be suppressed in favour of the former);
but we must suppose that Schmarda's figure of the front view is a
combination, more or less from memory or notes, of two sketches
or notes taken some time before publication; the one a side view
somewhat obliquely flattened, showing the two eyes as in
Levander's Fig. 3; the other a front view, showing the two pairs of
lateral limbs in their correct positions under pressure.

The male of Rhinops vitrea is exceptional in possessing a


complete, functional alimentary canal, with mastax, stomach, and
intestine (Rousselet). That of Proales werneckii has a mastax, but
no intestine (Rothert).

I have recently found a large species of this genus dwelling in the


shell of the large Cladoceran Crustacean, Eurycercus lamellatus. It
is remarkable for its power of completely telescoping its
extremities within the middle segments, and for its immense foot-
glands, both characters being doubtless correlated with its habitat.
Rousselet identifies it with P. petromyzon.

Euchlanis lynceus.—This is clearly not an Euchlanis, and of the six


names referred to—Ploesoma, Gomphogaster, Gastropus,
Gastroschiza, Bipalpus, and Dictyoderma—the first has priority,
and the other five drop by the laws of zoological nomenclature.

may say, therefore, that the Rotifera are organized upon the plan
of an Annelid larva.... I do not hesitate to draw the conclusion ...
that the Rotifera are the permanent forms of Echinoderm larvae,
and hold the same relation to the Echinoderms that the Hydriform
Polypi hold to the Medusae, or that Appendicularia holds to the
Ascidians."

Another worm, Histriobdella (Histriodrilus) homari, which is


parasitic on the eggs of the lobster, and which occurs on our coast,
has been placed amongst the Archiannelida. It is a minute form,
with peculiarities in its anatomy which render its affinities
uncertain.
