Reflection
I enjoyed LSEM. It was nice to have Jessi as my professor twice this semester. I think I did learn a good amount about college living through this course, and there was a lot of good information brought together for this course. I don’t think we needed to meet during New Lancer Days as much as we did, but meeting then is also important. We did a little bit of everything, from learning how to plan our days and use our time wisely, to how to overcome being overwhelmed. I’ve been told first year Longwood students in the fall of 2017 will be the last group to have LSEM. I’m not sure what the class will be like that replaces it, but I’m sad to see it go.
As part of LSEM, every class read David Levithan’s Every Day. Here are my thoughts on the first year reading experience.
We also were given the chances to go out and explore the campus and town, and expand our horizons when it comes to college life. Here’s a few things that I’ve done my first semester.
