Day Fifteen - A letter to your community
Day Fifteen - A letter to your community
Dear Tertiary student community,
I am so happy to be a part of you. A small, insignificant
part, but a part nonetheless.
Tertiary students always get a bad reputation among the
older generations. We’re loud, raucous, and we can’t control ourselves when it
comes to alcohol.
While this is true (to some extent), we are also
resourceful, hard-working, and forward-thinking people. This world needs more
people like us. We could try and solve so many of the world’s problems if we
tried. We have so much potential in ourselves, and the fact that we’re at
tertiary institutions (trying to build on previous knowledge) is testament to
out forward-thinking ways.
Studying in Hamilton at Wintec is the most incredible
experience of my life, and I appreciate every second of it. Even though we are
constantly bombarded with assignments and classes, we still have all this
knowledge inside of us, and I hope we all get to share it with the world
someday.
This community has also led me to some of the most amazing
people I know, and I wouldn’t trade them for anything. They’ve brought out a
whole other side of me, and have encouraged me to step out and make my opinions
heard. Thanks guys! You are wonderful in your own weird way…
Sincerely,
Tertiary student minority figure.
