Academic Enrichment Workshop Blog

I was absent for the KM3B academic enrichment workshop due to work so I had to attend the one in early November with another freshman class. I was immediately familiar with the multi-purpose room where it took place, and expected a long boring talk like the one I had for freshman orientation back in August.

I felt out of place but as soon as the speaker started speaking I realized that I was just as clueless as all the strangers around me. The speaker was very effective; his presentation had my attention from beginning to end. I learned many new things about interviews and what goes on in the interviewers mind. This session also firmly reminded me that like high school, grades are not everything.

Looking back now I wish I took more notes although I have all the handouts. Life is one big game where we have to juggle everything we have. That is why one must throw out all the unnecessary things that waste time. The workshop opened my eyes to the fact that I have very little precious time to give to do the mountain of things a college student must do.
