The first day of any school can be a little overwhelming. Meeting new people, having new professors, not to mention even finding the class. Luckily, my sister had already been going to that school for a year and a half and was able to show me around. On my first day I met quite a few new people. One of my coarse was very interactive and helped me to meet a lot of people I'm still friends with today. The class was Introduction to Speech Communication, the very first day you had to get up and meet new people and get into large groups and work together as a team to accomplish a common goal. Some of the activities were to be tied to the persons next to you with a jump rope and then you had to work together as a team to get unattached.
Also on my first day of school I met a few professors that helped me in my coarse, and coarse in the future. During my first semester I also took a Mass Communication coarse. This is where I also met two of my really good friends that I still talk to frequently. Mr. Broderick was the professor of this coarse, he was a very helpful teacher when it came to learning new media styles and how to make good journalism articles online.
I would have to say the first day of school was very successful and have enjoyed myself at ARCC for the past year and a half.

I would have to agree, starting at any new school can be nerve wracking. Glad you enjoy yourself at ARCC! One thing though, I think you meant to spell course* when you actually wrote coarse, similar spelling just a different meaning.

• Misspelled courses x4
• Run-on sentence: The class was Introduction to Speech Communication, the very first day you had to get up and meet new people and get into large groups and work together as a team to accomplish a common goal.
• This sentence was confusing: " Some of the activities were to be tied..." It would have been better to say: "Among the activities was being tied together..." You say "some" but then only list one.
• Run-on sentence: Mr. Broderick was the professor of this coarse, he was a very helpful teacher when it came to learning new media styles and how to make good journalism articles online.
• The names of classes don't need to be capitalized. x2
• Spell out acronyms (ARCC) the first time you use them and put the acronym in parentheses behind it. Don't expect your readers to know what you're talking about. This is the way to write the sentence: My first day at Anoka-Ramsey Community College (ARCC)...”
