With that being said, knowing what happens at the college and clubs/organizations that are offered gives students a chance to connect with people who are like-minded and who are here for the same purpose as them. There are many resources around campus that can help new students and current students try and transition into prosperous individuals. A student can go to the Student Activities Board and talk to someone about joining a club and being able to get involved on campus. A student can also visit the school website and find a list of clubs and organizations that are available. In addition to information about clubs the website also offers information about the university’s history and also tours of the campus to hear more information. Information about the school and what it has to offer is posted all around campus and there are staff who can also help students become informed. However, as for me and my experience here at North Carolina Central University, the information that I learned from Mr. Baker helped me develop an appreciation for my school. I will join clubs and organizations in the future and because of the presentation I know now that there is something out there for me. I now know the background of my school and where we come from as an institution. I am ready to inform others about the illustrious North Carolina Central University and how proud I am to be a part of the history

I have lived in North Carolina for almost fifteen years now. Throughout this period I have seen the abundance of opportunities here in North Carolina especially in education. There are countless numbers of great colleges and universities, however, since I have lived in the mundane city of Greensboro I feel constricted in my environment. Wilmington, being close to the sandy beaches of Wrightsville beach and home to a great university has led me to consider moving east. UNC Wilmington, being the state’s coastal university reflects the values of numerous things such as ethics, integrity, and diversity. These values, as listed in the mission statement, demonstrate how UNC Wilmington aims to excell an individual through a great variety of baccalaureate,
Many student clubs are available at this school that are there for you to choose and experience like the cadet corps, music activities , robotics , and many other ones.
Throughout our state and our nation, there are a variety of options when it comes to higher education. In the state of North Carolina, one of the many community colleges is Fayetteville Technical Community College, also referred to as FTCC. One of the many universities in our state is the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, which is also called UNC-Chapel Hill. I chose these two institutions because they are two of the places I am looking at to get my various degrees. When looking at these two places of education, we can see that there are many similarities, but there are also differences.
Being a Bunker Hill Community College student is not that easy unless you are associated with all the useful and valuable sources provided all over the school. As I seamlessly move from my high school experiences into a two-year college at Bunker Hill, I was so anxious to explore new things in the new college world. After I come to this college, I found that this college has many friendly and helpful resources that help me engaging myself in the new world. For example, I found that the admissions office staff members are very helpful in providing student information. Besides that, the school mentors are also helpful for bringing new students on a tour around Bunker Hill Community College. Furthermore, Life map Centre staff members are also very friendly in helping students organize their study plan and to register for class. The most interesting part is I found a reliable resource called A.C.E Mentor that tremendously could help the students to succeed in their classes.
My eyes lit up as a saw all of the different clubs and organizations offered. I loved Quiz Bowl, Book Club, Dance, and Chess Club in high school and I would love to continue these in my college life. Furthermore, at Rensselaer I can pursue my personal interest in sustainability with like-minded students through Vasudha. I could quickly see that many people at Rensselaer share similar interests with me. This idea was further supported after my subsequent tour around campus. Students were studying outside or milling about in groups, but what drew my eye was a group of students in vests and holding nerf guns. I watched as they prepared for battle and then took off after one another, and I had to stop myself from asking if I could join. The people I met and the students I talked to showed me the fun and encouraging side of a school that is known for its academics. Spending a couple hours on campus allowed me to see the fun, studious, and unique nature of Rensselaer and I felt right at
Opportunities I have been lucky enough to have. Currently I am president of The National Honor Society, Environmental Club, the Yearbook editor and Debate captain as well as a commissioner for the Bergen County Status of Women. All of which I treasure with my heart. In each and every one lays my blood, sweat, and tears. Those hallways have seen me endeavour some of my greatest successes and my even greater failures. But that's just the surface of what this school symbolizes and represents. Yes, I love participating in every single activity I do and prosper in, but it's beyond that. It's about walking through the front doors in the morning, opening my locker, and Mr. Colarusso announcing the designated block letter for the day even though regardless he knows I'll ask again at least three more times. It's about truly knowing my teachers, my coaches, and my advisors. As much as they have seen me mature, they have also been on the journey with me. It's watching Ms. Barrow's be promoted from Guidance Counselor to Vice Principal and still be so dedicated to my college
Through my experiences and achievements at California Baptist University, I can gain an academic advantage over my peers attending other schools. The amount of programs and majors offered at CBU will help me develop as an educated and experienced woman with a strong educational background at CBU. With the help of CBU, I can grow into my full potential and maintain a great headstart in entering the real world with a strong mentality of maturity. I have always maintained upstanding grades and high GPA in high school, and my attendance at CBU will merely continue my pattern of success.

Coe College’s students each identity into their own various categories and subgroups of one another. These groups can be labeled by the individual's’ race, heritage, location, or more specific groups such as what sports the individual plays, what clubs, or what they value the most. Every person on Coe College’s campus is unique in their own way and if a narrow mind is looked upon an individual, it may seem that there is no common group between anyone. It is not until we extend past the differences to find commonalities that we can look upon to find common ground while still respecting the differences that make any person different from the other. As a member of Coe College’s most diverse class, it is essential to be more united than divided
For most of my first year in college I felt lost and alone; I was not really involved with clubs or organizations until my second year at Miami Dade Honors College and I don’t want to have that same experience while attending FIU. I know that being part of the Honors College at FIU will benefit me because of the tight knit community, but it is always good to have friends and communicate with people from all backgrounds. After breaking through my shell, I have learned that I enjoy other people’s company.
