Good time of the day dear readers.
This is my Lehigh university supplement:
Why is Lehigh a good match for you? What contributions will you make to the academic experience and to campus life? (As a guideline, your response should be between 150-250 words.)
"Life is to be lived, friends are to be made and University is to be chosen". My university choice felt on Lehigh. Being ranked as one of the best research universities and having one of the best engineering programs, Lehigh is a perfect place where I can major in Computer Engineering, a place where I will have the opportunity to design and build my own hardware and research in the network area. Also what I admire in Lehigh is its cultural diversity. I have always been interested in meeting new people all over the world; at Lehigh my dream can come true with its international activities such as the International Bazaar, which will help me interact with diverse cultural backgrounds and bring diversity with Romanian and Ukrainian cultural backgrounds. At Lehigh I would like to continue my favorite high school activity and debate in the Lehigh Scholars Debate Club. I will try to contribute with any free time I will have to the debate club, but in the same time I will try to participate in different clubs and activities on the campus. I am not only convinced that Lehigh will give me the high quality education I am looking for, but also that I will become a part of Lehigh and Lehigh will become a part of me.
If you founded your own college or university, what topic of study would you make mandatory for all students to study and why? What would be the values and priorities of your institution and why?
If I founded my own college or university, I would introduce and make mandatory for all students the topic "Debate". A lot of students who are applying and who are enrolled in different universities are afraid to express their thoughts, to state that what they are saying is right and even to speak or argue with someone on any known topics. They are afraid to speak, because they are afraid to express their values, beliefs, or feelings. How will a student receive a work after university if he or she doesn't know how to prove to the CEO of the company that he or she is the best candidate for the place? Debates not only raise self-confidence, but also show that they have a voice. "What we say is what we are" and if we say it correctly and with confidence this makes us stronger and gives more certainty in our actions. Making "Debate" mandatory not only will change the way students think, it will grant them a lot of new knowledge in all the domains of the human society, because debating is everywhere: one can debate with one's friend about the Stephen Hawkins's astronomical theories, about Obama's political policy with one's father, and about how to organize the Christmas party with one's spouse. And when the CEO would accept the student that graduated my college and ask where he or she learned how to speak so clearly and convincingly, he or she would say that from the debating classes at my college.
