College starts tomorrow
And I'm so nervous. I need to get it right and finish this time or I'll be really upset at myself.

you all will do great...the best advice I can give you (i'm a college prof) is to get organized early in the semester. if you get horribly behind in a class and start floundering, don't avoid it cause it will only get worst.
if you're a first year, keep in mind that all the other first-year students are thinking: "ok, i just want to be able to walk from class to the cafeteria to the library without publicly humiliating myself." and finally, remember that faculty members are more than likely nervous the first day of class, and are wondering what you think of them. i'm sure we'll all have a great fall term (my school doesn't start for two more weeks  )

I'm sure you will all do fine. Just remember, this isn't high school anymore. The professors are not going to be there to "baby" you.....it's a whole new ballgame. There are caring faculty members, but also faculty who have the attitude of you either sink or swim. It's a whole new learning and growing experience. The best of luck to you all.

By the end of the first week your nervousness will subside. I didn't have to teach last semester and my students know I went to a ton of U2 shows, so I think I'll just talk about Bono until I remember how to teach again
 Seriously, though, you all will do great

And now I can't wait to go back. Funny how that happens. You will all have a good time. Going to bed late, caffeinating yourselves early and wondering why the hell you bought any of those "recommended reading" books. |
