Reflection QuestionsWhat are the most important things you've learned in your life?
There's countless lessons that could be qualified among the most important of my life. Some deal with learning, others deal with people, and still others deal with money. That being said, I will say that I've learned each of those lessons outside the context of a formal education. What things did you learn in your life that led you to choose UC and your current major? The biggest informant lesson of why I am at UC and in the Interdisciplinary Studies program is that I've learned to seize opportunities that interest me and to pursue those passions and interests with the understanding that everything will work out in the end. Each of those lessons has provided me the opportunity to make choices to come to UC and study what I do because they have empowered me to do so as an individual. Do you think going to a private/public school made a difference? I completely agree that my K-12 education was very distinct because I went to public school, but I don't think that experience shaped either my choice to attend UC or to study emotional intelligence. Which was more important -- the content or the teachers? This is a loaded question, and it asks you to compare apples and oranges. I wouldn't be where I am today without either the content or the teachers. I wouldn't have the knowledge foundation without the content, and I wouldn't be the person I am without having learned from my teachers along the way.
