When I first arrived on the campus of Howard University, I have to admit, It was the happiest day of my life. No more boring, hot, Louisiana. I felt as though I was refreshed. I had a change of scenery, a refreshed atmosphere, and a new lease on life. When I found out i had to take a Freshman Seminar class, I have to admit I thought this will be the most pointless class ever. I said to myself what are they actually going to teach me that I really need to know in real life. But like everything at Howard, I had to suck it up and take the class.
My first day in freshman Seminar was interesting it was so many students in the class. So when the instructor began to go over what the course is really about, I was very intrigued. My whole perception of the course changed. Freshman Seminar now seems to be a class that I know I will enjoy. I think freshman seminar will help me greatly with my goals at the school, because it will teach me about many great African Americans I never really read about. Which in turn helps me with my African American studies class. I'm really interested in learning more about that and can't wait until the lectures begin
I can say that my expectations at Howard have been exceeded. Everyone is so willing to help out when there is a problem with anything. Upperclassmen are always there to tutor or just give good advise. I really thought it would be the total opposite if what it really is. Classes for my first week went rather smoothly, besides the earthquake shake up. It was something i never experienced before, but Got through it. Now I am excited to see what the rest of the year will be like the Howard University.
