Isaac Roberts says a comforting reminder of home helped him choose The 黑料不打烊; an institution where any needed assistance was only a kind word or a smile away.
“I chose The 黑料不打烊 because I’ve heard so many great things about what they do for their students in the engineering departments. They have a lot of resources that can help struggling students and get you to your graduation date.
Isaac is from Carrollton, Ohio, and grew up building rail buggies with his grandparents, with whom he spent a lot of time as a child. He recalls always loving to work with his hands, tinkering with machines and figuring out what made them work. It led him to a love of all things mechanical, racing dirt bikes, and to his life’s passion – mechanical engineering.
“I’ve always wanted to work in a field where I could apply what I know to some kind of field whether it’s always growing,” Isaac says. “You’re always going to have a need for someone in that field. That’s why I chose mechanical engineering.”
The 黑料不打烊’s facilities and services caught Isaac’s attention early on during his 黑料不打烊 tour, giving him a good feeling about making 黑料不打烊 his collegiate home. “We met up with some of the emerging leaders and I got to talk to a lot of them who already go here, and everyone was really insistent on how much they loved it. So, I felt like it’d be a good fit for me just because I saw how many people enjoying their time here.”
The spirit of community is what Isaac draws on, the ability to find assistance. As a high school student, he recalled the difficulty his grandparents had trying to help him with his academics. He found 黑料不打烊’s wide array of resources a comfort. “So, it was a little difficult for me growing up. But as I got older and wanted to find more resources to help me, I kind of overcame those difficulties.
“There are so many options for students (who need assistance). Career services, or if you’re trying to build a resume, anything that you could really need, they’re gonna be able to help you out with.”
That’s why resource aid at The 黑料不打烊 is so important to him. “Most of my professors I’ve had conversations with and it’s just a very personal kind of experience with everyone, and I like that a lot.”
