Is college life what you thought it would be after one semester?

April Burriss- freshman, public relations – “Well, in certain aspects yes and then in some no. I was expecting to have classes where teachers lectured the entire time and didn’t care to get to know the individual student. I also expected to be overwhelmed with pressures of going to parties. However I do have to be smarter with managing my time and taking care of responsibilities.”

Tasha McAllister – freshman, ECT – “Yes in ways and no in others. Yes because I knew school would be more challenging and no because I thought there would be more things to do on and off campus.”

Chris Anderson – freshman, chemical engineering – “Yeah it’s what I expected it to be. I knew it would be hard to balance my school work and social life.”

Chris Chappell – freshman, architectural engineering – “Yeah, I think so. While in high school, I attended summer programs that had me stay on college campuses while interacting with college students. Therefore, I had experience and knew what to expect coming into A&T.”

Dannie Gore – freshman, ECT – “Yes, it’s pretty much what I expected. It’s a little harder being on my own than I thought it would be.”
