Wisconsin Lutheran College Reflection

During the past few months here at Wisconsin Lutheran College I have gained much knowledge and experience in and out of the classroom. I have met many great professors and students that have all impacted me somehow. In my opinion so far Wisconsin Lutheran College offered me exactly what I was looking for as far as connections, opportunities, and a Christian perspective. Being at WLC in the future will help me gain more of these things along with more experience in the my particular major’s field, extracurricular activities, and lifelong relationships with my fellow peers. Before school started, I was worried about how I would manage my time between school, football, and a social life. Throughout the semester I have learned to manage my …show more content…
I have spent more time preparing for assessments and doing homework than all of my other four classes combined. Sadly, my grade does not reflect that, but fortunately I am passing and am eligible to get into my major’s department. Aside from Chemistry, I am thriving in other classes. The course in which I have become more knowledgeable is my theology course. I have never really practiced reading the bible and attempted to find meaning in God’s word. Throughout the semester I have practiced this skill while reading a good amount of the books. I also have a better understanding of basic vocabulary terms used in the bible and used while talking about God and religion. If I would have went to a state university I would not have taken a theology course; luckily Wisconsin Lutheran College offers a liberal arts education which allows me to take part in these religion …show more content…
These five skills are life lessons; they are applicable in any aspect of life and will be used in the career paths I plan to go into.

    Our Lady of the Lake College is a Catholic institution that was created in honor of St. Francis of Assisi, who firmly believed that all of creation spoke volumes of God’s love for us. St. Francis was raised in a fairly wealthy family, and it was not until he was captured at battle for two years, that he decided to embark on the glorious journey of knowing Jesus Christ. He began preaching to word of God, and embraced others that were not of his kind. Students who attend Our Lady of the Lake College should be of the same example to others throughout their academic careers. As Franciscans, We live by five core values that are service, reverence and love for all of life, joyfulness of spirit, humility, and justice.…

    I chose to attend Wor-Wic Community College because of the support system that Wor-Wic has to offer. I applied to the school and attended it while I was injured with a traumatic knee injury and the staff really proved to me that they cared. I had surgery the first week of classes,so I emailed my teacher and they were all understanding and extremely helpful in accommodating to my needs. The late computer lab hours really helped me to be able to get my school work done after my night classes ended. Everywhere that I go I advocate for Wor-Wic because it is truly more than an institution, it is like another family to me.…

    The experience that I went through and that I would like to share was when I played golf in the beginning of the year. I was fine managing my schedule during the first week or two of school, but then I started getting more and more homework as the weeks went on. I had a hard time keeping up with my school work and playing golf. I practiced every day after school and I didn’t really have any time after school to do my homework. Playing golf took up basically all of my time because I played it 5-7 days a week between practicing with the school team or practicing with my golf instructor/coach.…

    When I first started Richland Community College, I thought it was going to be a breeze because of it being a community college. From the first week of it though, I realized this is not going to be a walk in the park. I realized I will have to put in extra time to study for tests and writing expansive papers. After being in Professor Trickel’s class for one semester, I have learned to study beforehand and not leave anything till the last minute, his class has taught me that time management is necessary in order to succeed. The class has also granted me new friends, who have helped me whether it be helping me understand the lesson, or sharing their study methods and materials.…

    I did succeed in making my grades but by the last months of the semester I realize that the stress that came with procrastination wasn’t worth in ad I started working on time management. In high school the words time management are repeated but never really explains. I grew up hating the simple idea of time management, but I have since learned that is means balance. It is easy to think of staying in and doing nothing but studies, but true time management is the balancing the responsibilities you must complete and the things you want to do. This realization has taught me that I can have a “fun” college experience without forgetting the reason I am at a university.…
