    Overall my experience has been great, when I began my college career everyone was very helpful and attentive. Yet as the semesters fly by, and although I've made many awesome connections with many professors, and resource personal alike. It has been hard to navigate without the proper and continuous guidance. It is true when people say college is hard, with each semester and set of new courses their is a new way of thinking that must be adopted in order to succeed. That being said, I've learned accountability in communicating to my network connections. Not only for the positive support they provide me, but the beyond appriciated peer to peer motivation and encouragement as well.
    My experience at college of the sequoias was great! Everyone was helpful at the student services office with any question I had. The campus at the sequoias was easy to navigate around. The people are nice and welcoming. Nice campus to sit around and relax on a bench before class started. I would definitely suggest that there will be more security services but overall great experience.
