After my first week attending SF State University, I can say that college is an amazing place! Throughout the five days that I have been a SF State Gator, I have a lot of people and have already learned a lot. The learning process in college is so much different than it was in high…
The amount that I’ve learned about myself in this limited time is amazing to me, but there is still so much I have to learn about myself. It is a slow and complex process that is unique to everyone.

My first semester in San Francisco State was intense and a life-changing experience. Because of it, I have a different view about college and life.
