First Semester Self Reflection


I’d say that overall, this first semester has gone pretty well. It took some time to adjust in the beginning and to really learn how certain professors teach. I think in terms of freshman seminar, classes like English have really reflected a lot that we learned in the lectures. Surprisingly, I have found myself on many occasions discussing the topics that we learned about in our many lectures with my roommate in relation to current events or things that happen to us on a daily basis. I feel that the lectures can be considered relevant to my every day life.
Some of my favorite lectures given by Dr. Carr and Kimberly Worthy have definitely inspired me and made me think more about my role as a student here at Howard University as well as a human being on this earth. Never before have been more inspired to give back to my surrounding community as well as my community at home in Philadelphia. Their lectures really helped me understand the real importance of community service and the significance of getting an education so that I can go back home and share that knowledge with others.
I think it is because of these lectures that I have really begun to find my self this semester; I have started to shape my own thoughts and opinions. My desire to continue my education off of Howard campus and after my career here at Howard has never been stronger because of this course.
