Three Fall Semester Tips
It’s the first day back on campus, or for some of you your first day of college. Welcome to school everyone.
- Talk to strangers. Introduce yourself to whomever you meet and ask them questions. Try not to talk for more than 30 seconds at a time and ask new people about themselves. This is the core of being charming, and will make people remember you, because you made them feel important, instead of being that jerk who talked about themselves for 10 minutes.
- Don’t be afraid of your professors. Just go to their office hours and introduce yourself, let them know you stopped by just to be sure you could find their office when you need it. DO IT THIS WEEK.
- Know your college’s add/drop dates, and if you don’t feel good about a professor DROP YOUR CLASS before the last add/drop date. It sucks to get a W on your transcripts just because you didn’t know the dates. Iffy on one of them? Check RateMyProfessor.com (or something similar) and see if the reviews match that feeling you’re getting.
