One Short Piece of College Advice

four of the colleges that
accepted me back in 2009

Going back to high school (so to speak) has led me to think about college from yet another perspective—that of the all-finished-with-college adult who's supposed to have advice to give to prospective students.

With that in mind, I've considered what small piece of advice I might give to high schoolers as the most important advice they could have for college. Here's what I came up with:

Don't let college change who you are, but don't stay exactly the same either. Strive to become a better version of yourself.

I know this is vague, nonspecific, and perhaps not all that helpful. It is a "short piece of college advice," though, and I believe it's very important.
