"I have benefited from attending class regularly by making great connections with my classmates and my professors. By knowing my classmates, it has helped me to not feel alone when classes have become hard. By knowing my professors and having a relationship with them, it has allowed me to have several great opportunities that I could never have seen coming, such as First Year Composition Committee (FYCC), letters of recommendation and being able to speak in their other classes."
