My 1st Quarter – Tunahan Olcay
I’m a transfer student from Turkey. I studied for three years over there. When I started [at Life U] about three years ago, I found all my professors very helpful. For a transfer student, that is important because you are coming to a totally new environment, meeting with new people.
My 1st Quarter: Menika Brady
What we are meant to do is always going to be so much bigger than us, so stay focused on that bigger picture. It’s less about myself and more about how I can serve others. When we do that, the benefits that come from that far outweigh anything else. There’s a different kind of joy to be experienced by putting yourself in that place of Lasting Purpose.
My 1st Quarter: Tatum Johnson
Take every opportunity you can. Join the clubs you never thought you liked. One time I sat in on the Nutrition Club with one of my teammates and even though I am not in any dietetics classes, I thought it was so fun. So, make sure to try every opportunity even if you don’t think it’s what you wanted. Just try it, it’s going to be okay.
My 1st Quarter: Haley Turpin
Trust yourself. You know your passion. You are being guided by something bigger than you that is leading you down the perfect route for you to thrive, to be supported and to be loved. Once you begin to feel those things, you’re able to give those back to your community.
My 1st Quarter: Alexis Martinez
Communicating with your professors is important, and that it’s not going to be easy. It’s definitely going to get harder as you go, but that’s not a reason to stop or to quit; the reward is greater at the end.
My 1st Quarter: Dr. Jesus Rolon Pagan
Organize a little bit better. How you organize your time is really important with a calendar. Balance is really important.
My 1st Quarter: Jess Keating
Take every opportunity you can. Just take every single opportunity and live your life. You’re in college – these are the “fun” years.
My 1st Quarter: Sydney Bickmeyer
I think I would just tell my younger self to start building connections with professors a little bit sooner and go to office hours. Shadow doctors in your free time. Try new clubs. Keep an open mind with everything.
My 1st Quarter: Crystal Cale
I think I would just tell my younger self to relax and not worry. That it was going to be exactly what I needed it to be. I made a great choice, and I would want to enjoy it.
My 1st Quarter: Tracy Lefebre
Relax into being yourself. You are learning the knowledge, but we all bring the things we have already experienced in life.
