Abstract
Going to college does not mean preparing for a
career or job, it means preparing for life, and your
purpose in life. It has taken me a long time and I
know that I am far from the end, but I think that I have
a much better grasp on who I am, how I got here,
who I want to become and how I want to get there.
Kalamazoo College’s mission eloquently states that
its purpose is “to prepare its graduates to better
understand, live successfully within, and provide
enlightened leadership to a richly diverse and
increasingly complex world.” This college has done
just that, not by the classes I have taken, but by the
experiences it has offered and allowed me to have.
Because of this, I feel that I have learned a great deal
about gratitude, trust, confidence, judgment, and
respect, as well as what I love and what I fear.
These recurring themes in my life that I have endured
through my experiences at Kalamazoo College have
helped me to begin my journey through life and to
find my place in this vast world.
