Our Stories: Becoming a College Student 

Research has shown that first-semester students often worry about their transition in to college
and how eventually students become comfortable and find a community of people with whom
they are close and feel they belong.

As we near the end of the semester, we invite you to share a second experience about
becoming a college student at City Tech. Aim to write 300-500 words and be sure to illustrate
your post with examples from your own experiences in classes, seminars, lectures, study
groups, or labs. What happened? How did you and others involved think and feel? How did it
turn out?

To complete this assignment:
• click the plus (+) sign at the top of the FYLC site!
• select “add new” post from the dashboard
• write your post
• select your FYLC faculty member as a category (Goodlad and Stewart)
• read and comment on at least two of your peers’ stories. If you did not do this during the first prompt you can still get credit by writing four responses.

Thank you for participating in “Our Stories”!
