As a senior in my third year of college, the only advice I ; can give you is to make sure you do not depend on anyone to tell what classes to take. Keep a copy of your governing catalog and class schedule, and plan out the remainder of your career at Westminster. Always double check information and make sure you fully understand what you are getting into. Advice from others can be very useful and helpful, just keep in mind that everyone has a different perspective, and they might not always have your best interest in mind. A very wise person once said, If you plan to learn, vou must learn political process. Otherwise, their needs and concerns will continue to go unanswered. Other schools participating in this years outreach efforts and contest were Brigham Young University, Dixie State College, Salt Lake Community College, Southern Utah University, University of Utah, Utah State University, Utah Valley State College and Weber State University.
