However, during my second summer here (The college allows you to work off your tuition during summer break. I had done so both before and after my first year.) I made three wonderful friends who—I risk sounding trite, but it's true—changed my life entirely and opened my eyes from the spiritual ignorance I was previously dominated by. Naturally, the college is not perfect—no college is—but the faculty truly do have good intentions for the students, regardless of what some may say. The rules are there for good reason, and while I do not agree with all the views that the college stands for, I respect their position and follow their standards because that is what a Christian should do—follow authority unless their commands directly conflict with God's Word.I believe that the drudgery of my first year was caused by my not listening to what God wanted for me. I originally majored in Graphic Design because I like to draw, and when I found that that wasn't what I expected, I switched to English. Though I did relatively well, my outlook on the future was not quite bright—something told me that something was wrong, but I wasn't sure what it was. This semester, I finally gave in during chapel and prayed,God, if you want me to change my major, have someone tell me that I would do well in that major within the next week.God answered my prayer, and he answered it much faster than I'd ever expected. After dinner the same night that I prayed during chapel, my friend told me that I would make a great Computer Science major. I changed my major shortly afterward, and have loved my major ever since.As far as suggestions go, I have only one. I certainly understand that PCC simply does not have a large enough faculty to fill every job, but the college needs to keep tabs on any students put in a position of authority, however small. I have heard of, seen, and experienced countless instances of floorleaders, desk workers, and others abusing their privileges, badgering students they don't like, making up their own rules, and much more. On the other end of the spectrum, many people in those same positions are excessively lax so that they will be well-liked. Both extremes are wrong, and while I understand that PCC cannot keep track of everything, they should make sure that these students are doing their job properly. |
