The author informs the reader about the Historic Milestones the University has.

Section 3/ Response:

Would I go to this college? If I lived in the state of Louisiana then yes, but right now I’m living in Georgia. The Money System I looked is mind-blowing, Tuition and Fees (Louisiana Resident: $11,958/ Non-Louisiana Resident: $28,635), Housing (Both Louisiana and Non-Louisiana Resident are the same with $8,376), Meal Plan (12 Tiger Meals) (Both Louisiana and Non-Louisiana Resident are also the same with $4,434), In TOTAL for Louisiana Resident: $24,768 and for Non-Louisiana Resident: $41,445. If it moved to Georgia, I would still probably go. If there is one value word that I would describe LSU, it would be success. It describes the result of hard work and dedication the students put in. Early 2022, I was getting interested in the State of Louisiana with their unique Creole and Cajun culture, food, jazz music, Mardi Gras festival and voodoo lore and I wondered what their college level of education is like down there. I wanted to know more about LSU thanks to their football team, when I looked at some live photos of the campus, I was blown away. I then imagined the achievements and accomplishments I could make if I was a student who enrolled there. I would embrace the new atmosphere, environments, and probably learn a lot about Cajun Culture. So, these are all the reason’s why I chose LSU as my chose for the project.

 I got the opportunity to interview Isaac Johnson and discuss his academic profile. We had a facetime call where we discussed our interests, school history, struggles and our future. Isaac is a college student who is currently at GSU Clarkston, and his major is Filmi media. He chose this GSU campus to make his parents proud.

He previously attended Shiloh High School; he did orchestra and had a mix of bad and good teachers, depending on his relationship with them. He spends more time hanging with my friends instead of schoolwork. All his teachers encouraged him to do his best. He began to spend more time on his homework to improve his grades. He juggles both work and school and somehow manages to pull it off successfully. Three words that would describe Isaac’s academic self are Smart, Determined, and Lucky.

Like most students, Isaac also had his own struggles in his academic path. During the height of the pandemic and virtual learning, he was struggling in his classes. Almost every student who worked at worked is easily distracted by their surroundings and Isaac knew that the only way that he can improve his grades even more is if he went back to school in person. Going back to in person school helped him in the end, especially if your grades are on the line. He will surely have a bright future.

Right now he’s still working hard to achieve his goals. In conclusion, know matter what’s going on around you or what environment you are currently in, if you work hard you can accomplish anything.
