A
Experience
So far my experience has been alright. I have not met many people, because most are either Greek or they simply have their specific friends that they associate with already. I understand that though. College is not like high school where everyone knows everyone and all the people are alike and hangout with whomever. It's diverse and the social atmosphere in many aspects, but not all, is much more mature. This school has much to offer academically which is why I go here and I plan to stay until I have accomplished all that I plan to. The staff is helpful and I have generally had a good educational experience so far, about which I cannot complain. I love Texas Tech for what it is as a University and I have much respect for what it stands for. I am very far from home, and there are many people here that are nothing like me or the types of people I am used to being around. In my opinion there are many students here who seem to have their heads a little higher than others and look down their nose, and if they aren’t like this from what I have seen everyone else keeps to themselves. I have had a few encounters with some very rude girls who live near me, but I am not moved by their antics, because that is just a distraction I will continually run into throughout life. I am here for an education and I am not worried about much else. So I would say despite the rough encounters I have had I still have a goal in sight that Texas Tech will help me reach as long as I do not lose focus. Overall it has been a good experience and I hope my experiences here will continue to be good in the future.
