Amber

Ive learned so much about the business aspect of the equine industry and have improved in my riding. I feel that my opportunities keep expanding with the more i learn from my classes which are hands on, which helps me learn alot better than just being stuck in a classroom. Living so far away from home and being on campus had really helped to to grow into the professional that i want to become. Its been so much fun in making connections with the different people in the industry. I just hope to be able to continue in my learning and graduate with the information that can make me successfull.

I have been exposed to a wider variety of people with different outlooks on life and different priorities.

One of the best parts of my college experience was the faculty and class size. The faculty was available to discuss any issues and give advice on a variety of different issues. The class size also has many benefits. The small class size allows students in like fields to become familiar with each other. The bonds made between students in similar fields of studies allowed for an environment that was more conducive to learning and critical thinking. The small class size also allowed professors to really know their students. The classes were relaxed but still very educational. This allowed for an enviornment that was conducive to asking questions and lead to critical thinking and discussion in the classroom.

So far college has been a really good experience, filled with fun classes and an exciting inaugural lacrosse season, with everything that I was involved in, it has just added to it. Some of the teachers that I have been privileged to meet have been amazing! They all have been extremely helpful and made my year full of knowledge and hope of the future.

Robert

It may be a little cliche, but for me college has been a growing experience. Both my Friends and my professors have influnced me and helped me exspand my views and see old things in a new light; and I can only hope that this has been a mutual thing and I have influnced them as well. Bhyond that, just being away from home and put into a different setting helps one see the world through new eyes. With any luck my next two years at college will be just as eventful, interesting, and fun as my first two.

I'm not always sure I made the right choice when deciding which college to attend, but I do believe everything happens for a reason and I have been blessed with opportunities that would have never aroused had I not come to this small liberal arts school. When I made the "decision" to come to LEC, I was an undecided freshmen and my only pirority was volleyball. Since then, I've realized volleyball won't be the reason I get into graduate school or land my dream job so began to use my spare time to volunteer and take on some exciting challenges. Now with only a year and a half left of my collegiate journey , I have an expedition under my belt and a semester abroad to still look forward to. This school may not have been everything I expected, but had I not come here I wouldn't have realized my passion and abilities that will provide me with a successful future, not to mention some lifelong friendships.

I have gotten a variety of things our of my college experience. Out of my college experience I have learned how to over come the adversities life throws at us. In college its rare if everything goes perfectly to plan. There will be nights of staying up late doing papers or nights going out with your friends which sometimes leads to bad decsion making,but no matter what you do you have to act to the consequences be it good or bad. By taking responsibility from your own actions and taking care of your self. Sometimes the only way to grow up and learn about life is to just experience it and learn as it goes. College has been valuable to me because I believe I am taking adavantage of an invaluable experience.
