Undergraduate / Libby applies to FS University - FSU Undergraduate Essay [2]
This is the prompt: For almost one hundred years, the Latin words, "Vires, Artes, Mores" have been the guiding philosophy behind Florida State University. Vires signifies strength of all kinds - moral, physical, and intellectual; Artes alludes to the beauty of intellectual pursuits as exemplified in skill, craft, or art; and Mores refers to character, custom, or tradition. Describe how one or more of the values embodied in these concepts are reflected in your life.
My name is Libby and I am applying to Florida State. I understand what the prompt is telling me what to do but I don't actually know how to start it. I am going to write about the first one, "Vires" and try to pull it into the major I would like to study. The major that I am looking at is Biology/Optometry. It is going to be hard but, if someone out there can give me some tips and suggestions on how to start it then that would be great.
Thank you!
