Have tbh been battling it out in the environmental science field right here in our great Lone Star State. But we ain't here to talk about me. This time around I'm actually reaching out on behalf of my niece who's embarking on her acathe programe school this Fall. She's bit nervous, as you'd expect any freshman to be and thought what better place to get the real low-down than here from y'all? Now as for me, back in my Baylor days it was all about hitting the books but also finding time for some good ol' fashioned football games and late-night diner runs (can't beat those chicken fried steaks! The college life is balancing act, amirite?

Can anyone share some first-handthe school program? How's the overall vibe there? Maybe some inside scoop on the best dorms or must-attend events during Freshman Week? On another note, my brain's been doing some heavy pondering about maybe going back to school myself Texas A&M for engineering. So anyone with insights into how that'd look like workload, faculty interactions, you know the drill would totally make my day.

My advice would be to really dive into the language courses with an open mind 'cause they can be super fascinating! I remember when I started at my Texas college, the language classes were so enriching. The professors were top-notch and really made the courses come alive. Have you checked out all the language-related clubs and activities on campus?

Getting involved can really enhance your college experience! I know that starting at a new college can feel overwhelming, so don't hesitate to ask questions or seek help if ya need it. Texas colleges have some great resources for students that can make a big difference. I'm curious, have ya thought about studying any specific languages or dialects in your Linguistics program? Also, are there any unique Texas linguistic aspects you're interested in exploring during your time at North Central Texas College?
