The best thing that college did for me is get me out from under my parents roof and their influence. College gave me a chance to develop my own beliefs and ideas by being surrounded by people from many different places.

College changed me, by forcing me to be surrounded by different thoughts and feelings of people that I normally wouldn't have come into contact with in my home town.

In the few short years I was in college I went from a religious staunch conservative to an atheist liberal. This would have never happened to me had I stayed in my home.
