[quote=Anonymous]The students who come to college with curiosity are the ones I want to teach. It's great if eventually they want to major in my department, but I have terrific relationships even with the ones who don't, because they were curious. Cling to that part of DC's academic personality with all you are worth; encourage it; foster the exploration. When the focus surfaces, as it inevitably will, it will then be a natural and happy development, rather than a limiting or abandoning of all of the other things that made DC tick for years. DC is lucky to be this person who is willing and able to explore, and it is OK for you to enjoy it rather than trying to direct it. Enthusiasm, comfort in one's own skin, and psychological wholeness will manifest in enough accomplishments for DC to have a happy landing at the right college. --College prof[/quote]
