Advice for Freshman
My advice is to go to class and pay attention because the worst thing is falling behind in class work. Even though school work is very important, make time for yourself to have some fun!
About Megan T
I'm Megan! I am an out-of-state student from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and I graduated in 2010 from my high school. I am studying civil engineering here at Western and loving it!
When deciding on what college I wanted to attend, I went on campus tours, talked to admissions directors on the phone and via email, and used online resources to get a feel of the school. I knew I wanted to come to MIchigan for school, I just had to figure out which school. I visited WMU and a few other schools in Michigan. After I saw Western, my decision was easy. I was so impressed by the people and the campus, including the engineering campus that I just could not say no. I have been interested in civil engineering since high school and that is why having a nice engineering facility was so important to me.
As a freshman, I live in the residence halls in Valley 1. I am glad that I chose to stay where most of the other freshman on campus live because it made it so easy to meet new people and create friendships. I am involved in the Society of Women Engineers on campus and I like to do things with people I have met there. In my free time, I like to go to a movie downtown, head to the mall or hang out with friends on campus. There are plenty of things to do around Kalamazoo.
