Maria

Sara

People party more then they do anything else.

Ashley

Before I came to school I wish I had known how big some of the lecture classes are. At first it was a little over-whelming because in high school my classes were smaller but you get use to it and it and it doesn't seem that daunting. Also that same class will have smaller lab classes the next day which helps you understand the material better.

James

I wish I had of known that I would run out of money so quickly.
