Summary:
 
      Yesterday, March 20, 1013 My classmates and I attended an expo given by QCC (Queens borough community college) at their campus. at the QCC trip we experience how a college school operates and what programs they offer especially for technology and also for many other fields besides technology. I think that this trip to QCC was an important trip because we got to see what the school can offer us as future college students and also because we need to know how college works and what we should do before we attend college and during college as well. In this trip I meet many students and school councilors at QCC that give us advice and feedback from their personal experience at QCC and also to help us technology students get ready for the next big step in our life "College".
      In the past Iv'e gone to 3 college trips, two to NYU and one to Ithaca College and I plan to go to NYU again because the experience in that school was beyond great,  we took a class with a very well known business professor in the United States and I also hear many testimonies from graduates that are now making millions in the market. I also plan to visit Baruch college, john jay college of criminal justice and hunter college as my CUNY options and also because they are very competitive schools.
      Going back to yesterdays trip I did meet my expectations for this particular community college because I know that the school doesn't have a lot of money to invest in teachers nor have a high- competitive material like other schools. my expectation was that they will be a lot of students from a low class income but with a very competitive education and willing to work hard to accomplish their goals in life and thats what I saw I also saw very humble students which is a major factor for success. the only thing I didn't like about this particular trip was the behavior of the other students specially from the cisco class who are supposed to be more competitive students then us from web design. In the next trip I will change the amount of students attending the trip and only take those who are serious about learning and are dedicated to going to college.
