- Know that your time here will, as everyone and their mom has told you, grow wings and fly. And obviously once gone, it can’t be regained. So, start your college experience with a bang! And keep on banging all the way through.
- You shall not murder.
- Don’t live the next four years within a framework of expectations and stereotypes. Be who you want to be and make sure to reflect on who you’re being.
- Get rid of Facebook during exam weeks. You can get it back.
- Collide into, and become profoundly entangled in those passions that you come to discover and create within CC’s walls and out in the New London community. Complacency and apathy, are, like, not cool.
- Unshakable foundations leave little to no room for growth. This is why roses don’t typically blossom when planted in concrete. Hence the danger of believing that you know your ‘true self.’ If I could do it over, I would desist with the idea of a true identity and devote myself to encountering each day with a mind sincerely bent on carpe diem.
- After being asked by Katie Couric why he believed his music is so popular, Little Wayne said, “Well, I work very, very hard Miss Katie. I love to work. We don’t approach things like, ‘we’re good.’ We just approach things like, ‘we gonna work and we’re gonna work hard’ and hard work pays off. If you work that hard, you’re gonna get good. And good turns to great.”
- I personally think monogamy is the antithesis of a liberal arts education. A liberal arts education is about freedom, flexibility, options, growth, self-discovery and multiple perspectives. Relationships are about restraint, restrictions, routine and commitment; in short, they’re about being stuck. This is why falling into the hands of that seductive beast, love, or anything that resembles it, is craziness. Plus, you’ll have your whole life to love like poets. But chances are that you will never have another four-years like these, where lusting like a vagabond is widely accepted.
- Find opportunities to disrupt your comfort zone and allow for your beliefs to be challenged (and possibly even to change.). Permit the next four years to humble you.
- Treat others as you want to be treated.
