I am asking for your help to solve a health crisis facing America. Around my city I see communities devasted be opioid overdoses. It is very devastating to see stories about overdoses on the new, in newspapers, and online. People should be able to treat their pain without worrying if they will get addicting or even dying.…
Thanks for all you've done in accommodating me with this nightmare. Moreover, I'm blessed. I can't stop thanking God and you! For some apparent reason, I did not see the letter grade (C). However, I'm lost for words. On the other hand, I feel stupid because of all the emails prior to discovering the letter grade. I'm apologetic and I thank you for considering my plea.…
College life is a time in a person's life that is usually remembered fondly. There is no question that college is a great challenge, and demands new skills from a young adult, but it is also a lot of fun. These tips shou...…
As I researched Creighton University School of Medicine, I discovered a school with a rich history, an innovative curriculum, and a mission statement that aligns with my personal interests and goals. I was further impressed that although Creighton University School of Medicine opened its doors to students over 120 years ago, the school understands that medicine is a continually evolving field and is dedicated to preparing students for these changes.…
Attending the Pride friday at IUPUC before the beginning of school has been one of the most helpful events. By going to this I met some friends and learned more about the school itself. Although I have made the choice not to stay at IUPUC all four years of my college career, being here my first semester has started me off great. During this event they spoke of how we start and end our four years in the same way. I am just glad I have been able to enjoy my first semester by making some new friends, learning new strategies to working and figuring my life out.…

Sorry for not getting in touch with you, I haven't had time to check in with you because I am taking summer classes in San Francisco and doing part-time help desk position at the same time. I did great on my first year of college and looking forward to the upper division classes in the upcoming sophomore year. I think the first year of college went well for me because of my wonderful experience at…
Coming from a remote village in India where access to medical care is limited, I have had the dream of becoming a physician since I was very young. But, being a curious individual, growing up I became fascinated toward other career paths in my childhood as well. For example, I wanted to become a pilot when I was in second grade, and wanted to become a professional volleyball player when I was in fifth grade. I am glad that I spent enough time in researching those career paths that I had absolutely no hesitation or distraction when I started pursuing my career in medicine. Today, I can say that pediatrics is my only career interest.…
Since my early childhood I always rolled played as a doctor, modeled by several physicians in my family. Earned the highest marks in high school has been instrumental in my acceptance to medical school. Graduating from the most well known Medical school in Iraq, the Faculty of Medicine, Anbar University, I was ranked the 6th out of 50 total graduates.…
Resident Life really is a lot more than I was expecting. The amount of people involved with trying to make our lives easier throughout our stay here on campus is outstanding. The resident assistants really have made my life easier and helped me very much. I knew about the resident coordinators, and I knew they do a lot, but I don’t think it really hit me how much each of them did for us until taking this class and going to this meeting. On top of all that all the other people, the counselors, the secretaries, Dr. Miller, the list goes on, all these people are here to make our lives easier and I’ve never been more proud to have the opportunity to have just the possibility of being a part of that and contributing to helping all the students…
I was the type of student to do the bare minimum and do whatever it takes just to get by. Going into this senior year I thought it was going to be a breeze but I've been wrong before. This senior year has taught me that if I want to be successful in my life then I need to give it my all just like Jesus commanded us too. This past summer I started to look into colleges I would be interested in playing football for. I found a few schools in Wisconsin that interested me so me and my mother drove 28 hours in a Prius to go visit 4 schools. During the trip I realized that college is closer than it seems. College is not just something we dream of one day but it is the next step in our lives. I am extremely excited for what God holds for me in the future and am ready to face life's challenges. High school is a lot of pressure but we all will look back one day and remember the good times of it. I am very thankful for the people in my life that have made me the man I am today. Finding the right college is going to a hard decision but I know God will put me at the place I need to be an I am very excited wherever that is going to…
This whole experience was very fun because we did get to meet new people and also get a feel of the campus for those of us who were planning on transferring in the coming years. we also got to view our different colleges we wanted to go into such as education engineering arts in different fields that they offer and what their majors consist of. in all honesty I enjoyed myself coming up here and was very pleased with the results that I got I met a lot of new people became more closer with the friends that I had and also got to see it. Of you from every different colleges aspects in how they would all intertwined with what my intended majors would be. my favorite part of this whole and experience with meeting the Native American Student Council,…
I was just telling a co-worker today, how much I am looking forward to a well-deserved vacation. It sounds like your motorcycle ride to Pigeon Forge was a fun trip for you and your friends. Yes, I am ready to graduate this December. Best of luck!…

Goodmorning everyone, I’m Jacob an engineering student from Chicagoland Illinois. Something I’m concerned with that I’d like to share with you all today, is adjusting to college life here in Platteville. Schoolwork isn’t the only adjustment we all have to make when moving up here, it’s a whole new life style to me. I’ve never had to share a room with anyone before. It’s very different and I’m still trying to adjust to not being able to leave clothes in the floor. A big difference between Platteville and the suburbs is, well I used to have to travel probably half an hour to find the nearest farm by me. Everything here is a lot more open and spread out than back home. My walmart was the cosco that was a mile from my backyard. The mall was a 10 minute drive from me and walmart, subway, and dunkin doughnuts, were a block away. Platteville is quite the change for me I’d say. Our eating habits also have to change up here, Platters is a bit different than my kitchen back home and my eyes are a lot bigger than my stomach. Then after all that, comes the important part of why we’re here, school. My teachers always said to my back in highschool, “Jake you’re not going to be able to procrastinate and put things off when you go to college like you do here.” Well I never payed much attention to that until I got here and now here I am, buried in schoolwork, studying, reading text books, with all this newfounded free time, comes all this new responsibility. I was always told you have three things in college, sleep, school, and social life, but you only have time for 2 of those. I also am on the cross country team so I’m gonna see how that all goes. In conclusion college is different, but change can be good, it’s just a manner of adapting to it. As Darwin said, “Survival of the fittest.” Well thank you for your time and lets all have a good time here at…
