 I think it's great to go to school with students from all across North Carolina because whenever I travel and visit like another city that might be like four hours away I still, I'm like oh my gosh I have a friend here and so it's nice to have people from all over. I'm part of the Lumbee tribe, my school is 80% Native American so that's really all I knew. I think we had one Chinese foreign exchange student one time but then coming here where we have such a diverse set of body of people from all over the state and they can move here from all over the world just really adjusting to their backgrounds and the conversations that you have you have to change the way that you see people and really just like be open to other perspectives. Being at NTSSM has let me meet new people that I wouldn't have before that are from different backgrounds and different socioeconomic classes and cultures and they have different opinions and ideas on social issues nowadays and I've really learned a lot from that. Being in such close proximity to these people with such different backgrounds and opinions it's really made me take a look at how I view the world because all of these other views that I might have thought of as just them back home they now have a face and they're living right next to me and so it's been a good, just made me take a good hard look at how I view the world and I'm better for it.
