With the best of a meaningful and well-intentioned college experience is grasping universal truths. One fundamental truth is knowing that everything is relative. The second fundamental truth is knowing how important being involved with student activities is. The third fundamental truth is understanding the value of a continued life-long passion for learning. My university is famous for turning students into ambitious, self motivated, enthusiastic individuals with a unique streak. This streak is the trademark Socratic method, which is a characteristic of a 'typical' student from my college. There is a general consensus that such things exist: a collection of characteristics thought to occur naturally and consistently among a student body from the same college. College seemed less like cookie-cutters; rather, they are built on a school of thought, so choosing a college is in one sense determined by 'fit'. I was slowly acquiring a character trait of my from my college and academic experience. It was rubbing off on me.
