For the final post in our KIPP Goes to College series (read part 1, part 2, and part 3), KIPP alumni, KIPP Through College leaders, and staff from our partner universities talk about the road not taken.
What’s one thing you wish you’d done, or done more of, in college?
“I should raise my hand more in class. Even though there were moments when I prepared until the midnight hour, I somehow lacked the confidence to raise my hand to speak. I always compared my thoughts to what others were saying. For the next two years this will change because I have something to say.”
– Donnell Bailey, KIPP New Orleans alumnus (Franklin & Marshall College)
“I wish I would have taken advantage of the study abroad program. I didn’t understand that financial aid could cover the cost and that I could still work towards my degree completion.”
– David Ling, KIPP Through College Director, KIPP Bay Area Schools (UC Berkeley)
