So, I'm on the school blog for my college, USFSP, and I just wondered what some of you would want to know about if you were looking at prospective schools.

Because, we're supposed to write things from our own perspectives, but the first few entries I submitted were trashed because they were "too informal".

ANYWAY I need to write a new entry soon (whoops)

I've been in College for 4 years now... (Yeah I'm freaking old). This is my last semester. The biggest thing that I look back on is how to interact with college professors. I personally sucked at it, and now that I'm almost done, I wish I learned more about was how to talk to them. The only reason it took me so long is because I didn't have anyone to guide me in my classes. I ended up doing what I thought was right instead of what I needed to do. That is why after 4 years at community college I am graduating with a degree in General transfer and not the one that I want, which is Biology with a minor in education.

Those are my thoughts anyway.

Heh, I'm actually out looking for colleges now. Campus visits soon.
I guess that people would mostly like a well-rounded college, in terms of intellectual setting. That's assuming you want to cater to the needs/wants of most rising freshmen. There's also the reassurance from helpful/caring faculty, a diverse student body, and many types of extracurriculars and courses.
