Things I Wish I Knew Before Coming to CC

Develop a relationship with one or two faculty members during freshman year.

Go to as many speakers/theatre/music events as you possibility can.

Rush, even if you don't plan on joining.

Don't worry about getting a single room freshman year.

Never skip TWIG, no matter what.

Even if you don't play sports, play intramural sports.

Get involved in extra-curricular activities ASAP.

How to write a good paper (not just a five paragraph essay).

How to “skim” through a book and still understand it.

Getting an “A” isn't always the most important thing in the world.
