College - extra credit

We were asked the question, "Why are you in college?". I am enrolled in Minnesota State University- Mankato because I want to get the education I deserve. My family and the community I live in brought me up with the belief that, you go to elementary school, grade school, high school and then you're off to college. The high school I went to was a Luthern high school and had a slogin that said, "We're preparing you in a Christ-centered education to go out to preach the Word of God to whatever college you attend after high school." So my high school was all about preparing every student for college and the life to come. I've always been brought up that after you graduate high school, you're off to college. Since I was 5 years old I've wanted to come to MSU. My parents both graduated from MSU and they actually met on the MSU Bowling Team, they both worked in the bowling alley. My parents have always told me how much they loved MSU, so I began to love it just as much as they did. Not to mention purple is my favorite color so I of course had to go here! I believe that while I'm attending MSU, I am getting the education to better prepare me for the career I choose.
