The UAlbany Experience: Pascale M.

I can summarize my college career as a learning curve. It really has been a growing experience towards adulthood and the significance of education in one’s life. I could not be where I am today without the great, mountain-moving assistance of my CSTEP and Project Excel mentors, professors, academic advisors and parents. The students whom I have had the great opportunities of sharing classes, laughs and worries have been an asset in practicing communication skills and workmanship. This is essential for the workforce. As a student who also works part-time, college has been a great way to try to learn time management. The key word in this sentence is “try”.  In the end, a college career is more than “try”, it is about “succeeding” and how a student defines success.

By attending UAlbany, I’ve gained the ability to see different walks of life, take different courses that shape the necessary mold of individuality and complexity and find different ways to enjoy the Campus Center food. I really have to say, many things can measure a school, but its food options set a tone about how you will enjoy the institution. And its libraries. UAlbany has great libraries.

My most memorable moment at UA would be when I went to the Patroon Room to eat and I saw the former University President, George M. Philip dine with a colleague. It is a humbling feeling to be able to be in the same room with the University President. That was cool.
