Attending CLC was a very smart decision, and the college exceeded all of my expectations.You get so much for the tuition price, and the college does an outstanding job of helping people prepare for a career or four-year transfer program. Besides the great professors, CLC has so many resources, from the free tutoring to counselors.
我已经为伊利诺斯州立大学做好了充分的准备，通过获得佩尔助学金，我已经能够在今年夏天完成我的副学士学位。在CLC学习通识教育课程有助于缩短获得学士学位的时间。
After graduating from high school, I knew that I wasn’t ready to go away from home, but I wanted a true college experience and got it.CLC’s psychology courses have been terrific. In an introductory course, the professor really pushed us to learn the material on deeper levels. We discussed disorders, lifespan development, the id, ego, superego and different psychologists from Sigmund Freud to Alfred Adler.
When the professor assigned us to write a five- to 20-page term paper on any aspect of psychology, he mentioned that the size of the paper “is not even a dent” compared to the size of a doctoral dissertation. For those of us planning graduate degrees in psychology, his comment helped prepare us for our future.
In a sociology class, the professor engaged the class by using humor and making reference to popular movies.他解释了《星球大战》(Star Wars)最新电影《侠盗一号》(Rogue One)是如何展示家庭动态的。他还引用了《星际迷航》(Star Trek)中的柯克船长(Captain Kirk)作为领导品质的例子，他还为《星际迷航》(Star Trek)中的人物进行了有趣的配音模仿。我很喜欢上课，时间过得很快。
在课外，一位数学老师不遗余力地帮助我克服数学焦虑。当我上初级统计学课时，一开始我很紧张。但导师看到了我的潜力。她解释了如何学习材料，如何做清晰、有条理的笔记。当我和她一起复习材料时，我的自信心增强了。当我在这门课上得了A的时候，感觉很好。
The tutoring is a great resource, and the center’s location on the Grayslake Campus location has sunshine and a pretty view of Willow Lake. Both create a calming environment in the winter and summer.
在格雷斯莱克校园，我欣赏日本花园的美丽，Café柳树的自然光线，以及坐下来学习的开放空间。校园足够大，可以容纳每个人，但又小到不会让人不知所措。新的科学大楼将是一个美妙的附加，我喜欢所有新的改进如何a, B和C翼在一起。
At CLC, I’ve made new friends with people from all backgrounds, and it’s a great feeling to walk down a hallway and say a friendly “hi” to people I know.和和你有相同追求的人交朋友是件很好的事情:接受大学教育。
I want to be a psychologist because I like helping people.Ever since grade school, I’ve been fascinated with how people think. I never get bored with psychology, because no two people behave in exactly the same way.
