The Seven Survival Skills Every College
Freshman Must Know
This September millions of students will step onto a college
campus for the first time. More will drop out during the first
six weeks of school than the rest of the entire year.
"This is a tragedy," says Dr. John Doe, a professor at Any
Town University. "Every student admitted to college is smart
enough to graduate . . . but this doesn't matter if they don't
know the seven survival skills and survive those crucial first
six weeks!"
Here are Dr. John Doe's seven survival skills:
| 1. |
Treat your roommate like
your best friend . . . even if they aren't. |
| 2. |
Don't assume - no matter
what your question, keep asking it until two people give
you the exact same answer. |
| 3. |
The biggest test of your
entire college career is: CAN YOU SURVIVE THE FIRST SIX
WEEKS? |
| 4. |
No matter what your problem,
there is an expert on campus to help you. First check with
you Head of Residence. Then go to the Dean of Students'
office. |
| 5. |
DON'T BE
INTIMIDATED. College looks much more difficult than it
really is. |
| 6. |
When you feel everyone else
is so much smarter and better prepared than you, remember
this quote: "College is a fountain of knowledge. A few
come to drink. More come to sip. But, unfortunately, most
come just to gargle." |
| 7. |
When you feel like dropping
out, repeat three times: "Do you want fries with that?" |
Dr. John Doe, author of
