Tips to Succeed
- Don't party too hard on weeknights. Part of college is having the freedom to do whatever you want. You should definitely take advantage of that freedom, but use your head wisely. If you know that you have a test at 8 a.m. the next morning, then you probably shouldn't go bar hopping the night before.
- Go to class! Yes, you've probably heard it from your teachers and parents a million times, but in most cases, just making a presence in class will help your grade more than not showing up at all.
- Go to football games, even if you don't like football. Auburn in the fall is completely focused on football. Parties, social events, and often tests are scheduled around football games so be sure to get in the Auburn spirit. WAR EAGLE!
- Talk to your professors if you have any questions. That's what they are there for. In a lot of cases, professors will be willing to help you out on a test grade or homework assignment if you have a legitimate reason for questioning it.
Did You Know?
The building known as the Haley Center is where the majority of freshman classes are held. This building is also one of the hardest to navigate. Room numbers are split into three sections: floor number, quadrant number, and room number. So, for example, room 3122 would be on the third floor, first quadrant, in room 22. Good luck!
