University Life and Trials WITHOUT The Candy Coating BY Correy Miller
Actuality What they meant… What they said… • The campus is on its own Island! • There is a financial aid and business center for your convenience. • You get to pick your own schedule! • There is a cafeteria on campus with a variety of hot fresh meals daily. There are also healthy options like Sushi! • The campus is probably the windiest place in Corpus! • Every one there will tell you something different, so if you want advice see the same person every time. • Register quickly or get stuck with a scattered scheduleor crappy proffs. • If you eat on campus you will go through your school money before midterms.
Actuality What they meant… What they said… *Classes are big so make an impression with your professors * Especially in large lecture classes there will be an abundance of study groups! *Group projects will ease your workload • “I'm sorry, what's your name again?” make your self familiar to your proffs. They will be more likely to work with you • every one else in large lecture is as clueless as you! • Some times you may end up carrying the work load.
Actuality What they meant… What they said… • There is a brand new Wellness center here on campus free for all students! • A new parking garage is in the works to make parking easier on campus, bringing 1000 spots! • You were already charged almost $400 in your fees for this so use it!!! • A new parking garage is in the works to make FACULTY and GRADUATES’ parking convenient.
Actuality What they meant… What they said… • Black Board is a new program that lets you view your grades, submit assignments, and mail your teachers or classmates! • All of your instructors will have dead lines for papers and portfolios. • Black Board is program that some of our teachers will refuse to use because they cant get it to work consistently either!!! • Most of your assignment will all be due around the same three days, its inevitable...and cruel.
What no one said • Your first few semesters will be the most difficult so don’t get discouraged!! • The campus in its entirety is suffering from Chemical Dependency…… TO MONSTER!!
