Paizley Legace is a first-year student at the University of Maine at Presque Isle (UMPI.) Legace, who commutes to campus, paused for an interview while standing in the late-September sun outside Folsom\/Pullen Hall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt [college] is much different than high school,\u201d Legace explained, emphasizing the distinction between educational institutions. \u201cYour assignments are due differently, and there is much more online. The professors don\u2019t check in on you; they take your word for it\u2013which is new to me.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Legace called UMPI \u201ca perfect fit\u201d for her, primarily because the campus is less than an hour away from her home in Perth-Andover, New Brunswick, Canada.\u00a0 During her time in college, she transformed her study habits to keep pace with her classmates. She encouraged incoming freshmen to \u201cbe prepared\u201d for the increased workload.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Legace also credited students, professors, and staff, as her \u201cfavorite\u201d part of the UMPI experience.\u00a0 She looks forward to meeting new people and plans to enter the education field upon graduation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
