Julian A.
I am a Cornell Surgical Society member, Human Ecology ambassador, research assistant at the Field Laboratory, Pre-Professional Programs (P3) member, and the marketing coordinator on the EARS e-board (Empathy, Assistance & Referral Service).
My favorite thing about Cornell is how easy it is to approach professors and other resources with questions and how easy it is to become involved in research. I once dropped in on a class that seemed very interesting to me after approaching the professor for permission!
The College of Human Ecology is a great fit for me because I have been able to nurture my interests in healthcare and science through different lenses and consider ideas that I have not given much thought to before through its interdisciplinary approach to learning. CHE has started to mold me into someone that intuitively coalesces knowledge from many different areas when considering issues that may seem straightforward at first glance.
My go-to campus resource for academic matters is the Learning Strategies Center (LSC) and its support courses. During orientation week, I was made aware of the LSC and the support courses they offer for many general science courses. I am very glad to have started off enrolled in said courses, since they keep me on my toes and ready for my future classes. I am a firm believer in reaching out for help before you need it, and I am very glad that I made the decision to enroll in LSC courses; I’ve learned interesting material, but also how I best learn and study.
Something I wish I could tell myself or any other incoming freshman is: You were chosen for a reason. You belong here, and many people are willing to help you thrive. Reach out for help and don't give up if things don't go as planned.
Through my classes, clubs, dorm events, and my roommate, I have been able to meet many amazing, friendly people, fostering a sense of community in my residence hall and all around campus.
My go-to place to eat on campus is North Star for dinner, since they are open late. I also enjoy Morrison Dining and eating French dip sandwiches at Goldie's in the Physical Sciences Building after chemistry lectures.
