AOD Blog #9 - Building Social Capital

When I thought about what I should write for this blog, I thought of Thanksgiving. On Thanksgiving Day, I forgot to mention about an important conversation I had. I had a conversation with two college students whom were friends of my uncle. One is from University of Washington and the other from Seattle University. The conversation was very helpful for me because they mostly talk about student life in their campuses. They adviced pros and cons on the colleges they go to and the colleges that I'm interested in. Such as Seattle Pacific University. They know that I liked small classes and interaction with students and teachers in college. So one of them said that UW have very large classes and it might not have a close interaction with the teachers; the other, from SU, said that they have small classes. When I mentioned about SPU, one of them (from SU) adviced not to go there because of the students (in the way they behave, present themselves) since she went there on her freshman year. I don't know if that's true, but I will sometime visit the campus.
