My
name is Brandy Kirkland, and I currently live in Valdosta, Georgia
to attend Valdosta State University. I am presently a freshman
thinking about majoring Child Psychology or Special Education.
Before I made the move to Valdosta, I lived in Douglas, Georgia
(Coffee County); There, I spent my entire life growing up on a farm. I have an older sister named Terra. She lives in Chicago. I am very much a
perfectionist; if I do something, it is going to be done to the best
of my ability. My favorite food has to be sushi, or any other form
of Japanese food , really. The freshman year experience at Valdosta State University is critical in laying the groundwork for a successful academic and professional career. Employers view a well rounded successful academic career as evidence that students can be equally successful and productive in their chosen fields. Success begins by mastering the three principal tasks of the first year student:
- Academic Skills Development
- Adjusting to College Life
- Developing Academic & Career Goals
VSU’s Freshman Year Experience (FYE) is an outstanding student development program that assists first-year students in accomplishing these tasks. The program is designed primarily for students who have not yet decided on an academic major.
