GLORIA STEINBERG, NORTH FARMINGTON HIGH
SCHOOL, MICHIGAN STATE UNIVERSITY
Major: Business
“Don’t get your hopes too high; you are attending
college for an education.”
1. The mindset of party, party, party can lead to
a disastrous GPA.
2. Eat the cafeteria food. There’s no need to
spend more money on food.
3. Do and start the assignment the day it is
given.
4. If the assignment is a big one, have it checked
by the professor in their office hours; it will ensure
a good grade and show the professor that you’re
a hard worker, which is a great place to be in a large-sized
class.
5. Don’t expect too much from your roommate, who is in
the same boat as you. It’s helpful to be on good terms, but if
you expect going in that you’ll end up being best friends, it’s
usually a disappointment.
ISAAC WEISS, HOME SCHOOLED, WAYNE STATE
UNIVERSITY
Major: Music education
“Time management is the single most important
skill you can develop or the deficiency most likely to
destroy you.”
1. At the beginning of the semester, go through
your syllabi and put into your calendar every date
that assignments are due or exams take place.
Then use this to get started on every project with
time to spare.
2. Live on campus if you can! Everything is
much more convenient, and you also have the
opportunity to meet many new friends.
3. Work before play! But play is also important. Bring a
couple of decks of cards and seek out people to play with.
4. If you’re going to Wayne State, eat at Gold ’n’ Greens — a
supervised kosher, vegetarian, healthy and really delicious
cafeteria/restaurant. Get sautéed onions and peppers in
your eggs in the morning — Norm does them really well.
5. College isn’t mandatory. If you’re doing it, you’re doing
it because you’ve decided to. So enjoy it, keep a positive atti-
tude and you will have many positive experiences in your
freshman year.
ALEXIS SPECTOR, FRANKEL JEWISH ACADEMY,
MICHIGAN STATE-JAMES MADISON COLLEGE
Major: International relations
“Greek Life is essential and well worth it.”
1. It’s a heavy workload, so make sure to make
your way to your professors’ office hours, mostly
around exam time.
2. Go to the library or group study session to
make sure you are ready for your tests.
3. Your social life depends on being involved
with Greek life. These girls/guys will make you
go out and help you realize that college isn’t just
about grades. They will encourage you to do well
in school, but remind you to take your head out of
the books every so often.
4. James Madison is supposed to be hard! No one survived
it because it was easy! •
