About Me

Howdy, howdy! My name is Chase, and I was born and raised in Macon, Georgia. My parents have been married for 21 years, and I have two brothers: Billy, 20 and Daniel, 5. I graduated from Westside High School in Macon, and I am currently enrolled at Valdosta State University. My brother, Billy, also attends this university. I am living in Lowndes Hall. I do not have a major declared yet, but I hope to have one declared by the end of my sophomore year. I'm a Georgia Bulldogs fan, but I still root for the Blazers.

The Freshman Year Experience Program

Section 2: The Freshman Year Experience

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 accomplishing these tasks. The program is designed primarily for students who have not yet decided on an academic major.

The Freshman Year Experience (FYE) is a great program for freshman students who don't have a major. It also helps you get involved in the community by requiring you to have community hours each semester. I'm in a class with twenty-six students, and we have three classes together.
