If I could change one thing...

While I believe that I had a wonderful education that guided me to furthering my education here at Luther. I don't know if I was properly prepared for the transition between high school in college curriculum. I realize that one attribute to senior year is "senioritis," which causes most students, like myself, to feel it is ok to take "easy A" classes and not do homework. This is a result of already being accepted into college and simply not caring anymore about this because it is the end of their high school education. What I am getting at is that senior year each student should be taking their most challenging classes because they are not only the most educated when it comes to students in the building, but they are also the closest to the next step which is full of uncertainties and obstacles. College is hard, yet can be made easier if students are use to working. In high school, every student should take four years of math, science, and a foreign language. Not requiring this is saying, "Ok, we give up and it is ok to not keep up with the rest of the world in education." With four years completed of these subjects and English, students can start at higher levels in college, allowing for more educational opportunities and advancement for students. If we want to compete on a global level and want to continue being a super power we must educate the next generation to know more, stretch themselves further, and be excited to be educated.
