TenCommendments for a college Freshman
Dear J.B.-
…As you know I am asked from time to time to talk to high school students about college and how to prepare to for it. Do you think something like the following would be helpful? I’m thinking of calling it: TenCommendments for a college Freshman. Give me your ideas on what to scarp and what to keep. 1. Thou Shalt Plan to Succeed.
Does this seem as obvious as the need for a quarterback on the football team? I don’t mean hope to succeed. I mean that succeed in college will be much more likely if you really draw up a schedule of hours for study, work, and play. Lay out your day and your week. Get in the habit in high school. This will be the secret of getting things done in college and enjoying the whole experience.
