Man on the Street
This Week’s Question:
Are you better off now than you were a year ago?
Ayleen Cantu
Major: Bio-Med
“I think I am better now. It’s because of how much I feel like I’ve grown since then. I have learned from my mistakes, and learned things that I did not know before. You have to remember that no matter what, you’re not alone, and that there should always be someone to help you through anything.”
Daniel Aldiaz
Major: Electrical Engineering
“In terms of classes, I feel I’m much improved. There was help in picking a major, and all the classes make me feel welcome. You just have to not procrastinate, do your work on time and eat healthy. I only recently lived outside of my family’s house, so I feel like a big difference between me a year ago and me now is quite a bit of growing up.”
Antonio Del Bosque
Major: Music Education
“I feel like I am. I have definitely learned how to do college better, and how to solve problems with the help of others rather than trying to do everything by myself. I did so by joining a lot of organizations and discovering myself. It also helps to find time for yourself. Do not study all the time, and find some moments to breathe.”
Alona Minchin
Major: Voice Music Education
“Yes, I feel like I’m better off than I was. I have been in numerous performances and productions that I now have the privilege to be a part of. It makes me happier than my previous self. You just have to study and put time into what you love so that you can improve.”
