Most of us grew up going to school outside the house. Leaving for kindergarten made our parents cry, then leaving for college brought more tears. Going out of our comfort zone is an important part of our growth as individuals. Along the way, we find out how we learn best and how we like to interact with others.

I found through my undergraduate education that I learn best by asking questions and discussing topics with others rather than relying solely on reading textbooks and working independently on assignments. Group projects and presentations are my favorites because they cater to my extroverted personality and my desire to expand my leadership skills.
