Leaving Bridge Successfully - Malcolm Kelly

As I leave the bridge program successfully, I feel very much confident in my work effort and my ability to get my assignments done. I feel that the bridge program was a very positive experience for me for a few reasons. The program has helped me better understand the set up of Columbia College Chicago. I feel that if I had not attended the Bridge Program I would be lost if I was to attend college on the first day. I believe that every student should at least have the opportunity to attend the bridge program and that there should also be credits given for completing the program. This is because the Bridge students have put in a lot of time and work effort into the program. I leave the Bridge Program with a better understanding of what is expected of college professors and the staff. I saw a lot of associates not make it through the program. It was almost like reality show how students were basically disappearing back to their homes after being dismissed from the program. There were so many watery eyes during the time at Bridge that it could quench a runner’s thirst. I feel that watching these people fall short has motivated the ones that have made it knowing that this is a pain we didn’t want to feel.
