As a transfer student, I have obtained two perspectives on the college experience. Over the past week, I took the opportunity to step out of my normal routine and simply sit and observe the community around me to encapsulate our theme. As I watched students hurry across the quad to make it to their next class, I couldn’t help but notice some smiling faces as they walked past the Carrot Man or tour groups of newly admitted Trojans. Our small, individual wins faced during the day amount to a victorious, fighting student body.
