Being successful at UMF means first defining what success is. Success is finally achieving something you have been striving for. I think being successful here at UMF means not only earning a degree, but also becoming a teacher. In order to achieve both of those results, doing well in classes and developing a network of friends, family, and colleagues to support you in your endeavors. Doing well in classes means knowing when you need help and being able to ask for it. I know that I have a hard time admitting that I need help, but when I was struggling with a paper for one of my classes, I made the decision to ask for help. Effort is also required to be successful. One cannot expect results without any effort, so it is important to put as much effort into all aspects of your life in order to reap the most rewards. I feel as though most of this is stuff I have known already, and that I'm just realizing how important it is through my different classes at UMF. My professors and my advisor definitely help put an emphasis on being successful here so that I can be successful in my career.
I would like to know what options, resources, and opportunities are available around campus and beyond that will help me to be even more successful.
