The semester is now ending and I a lot of mix feelings about my freshman seminar class. Freshman was quite experience to say the least. When I first registered for the class, I believed it would be easy because it was a one credit class. I did not believe that this class would be important or require that much work. I thought it was more so an introductory class meant for freshman to meet each other and to get acquainted with our professors. I soon realized that was not at all the case.
The freshman seminar class was more than what I expected and it actually ended up being a positive experience for me. I really enjoyed the lectures we received every Wednesday in class. I found the speakers to be really inspiring and informative. I learned so much about Howard University and the legacy behind the university. The speakers also gave us information about the amazing people that came through the school and opened doors for our generation. We were told that it is our responsibility to carry that legacy on by educating others in our communities. I also loved the African Burial Ground trip. I learned a lot about the history of slaves and how significant the finding of the African Burial Ground was not only because of its important meaning, but because the people who were involved in studying of the bones were from Howard University. Overall this freshman seminar class really inspired me to become the best I can be and to continue the legacy.
