General Tips For College

By Hedrick Lepsch


When it comes to your college experience, it is supposed to be one of the best and most exciting time of your life. It is also a time that will be very important in the creation of your future. The choices you make as a college student have the potential to affect you for the rest of your life!

One of the first things you need to do if you want to be in club leadership, is to become an active member of a club, and participate regularly in the activities it provides. By starting out as a loyal member, you will become a key member of the team, and much more likely to be considered for a leadership position.

One of the best things to do as you start attending college is to think about your priorities. What are your main goals for the rest of your life? Is money really important to you? Or do you want to just really enjoy what you do? Is it possible to do both? Finding the answers to these questions will help you as you make important decisions and embark on your college experience.

One of the most important things a leader should understand is the necessity of delegation. The best leaders do not do everything themselves, but rather they master the art of helping others to do jobs well. AS a club leader, you should delegate responsibilities to others within your presidency so that everything will have a job, and everything will get done. By doing so, your club will run much more smoothly, and you will be able to accomplish whatever you put your mind to.

One of the most important things is to balance your social life and your academic life. Find out what kind of a schedule you need. For some students, cramming works out well, while for others, consistent studying is better. Making your friends a priority is especially important. If you don't give yourself a chance to play, you will crash.

It doesn't matter what you are studying, whether it is Business Administration, Accounting, Property Management, Event Planning, New Media Marketing, or Programming, there are clubs that will appeal to your interests. Studying at home and in classes are not the only enriching parts of your education. It is important that in your extra-curricular life you have something to help you stay grounded and teach you about the real world outside of the classroom.

If you are unhappy, you will have a more difficult time being successful. That does not mean that you should love every class you take, some classes will be challenging and maybe even boring, but find a way to enjoy even those classes, or at least to reward yourself for attending them.

Beyond leadership skills, you will also increase your ability to lead, and improve your skills more generally. As you use college to prepare for your future, you will be able to build a skill set that will set you apart as a leader in any field you pursue.
