Thanksgiving and Black Fridays are not the only things happenings in the month of November. As college applications are due and seniors can eat their turkey knowing they did their best, I sit down with my cousin Jennifer and my brother Evellard as they speak about their first semesters in college. Jennifer, studying integrated neuroscience at Binghamton while Evellard studies psychology at Queens College, these two STEM students tell me about their college expectations and realities.
