Interview 1:
HS: Chitia High School, not very big, graduating class about 360, a lot of people went to school
Motivation: Always wanted to go to college
Parents: My mom did not finish high school, Parents pushed me to go to school
Hear about UM?: Through the mail
Reasons to stay Local: No interest in leaving, Health problems
Major: Undeclared
Fears?: Not feeling very smart, having to make a whole new set of friends
First Day: Very awkward, didn't know anybody
Favorite Class?: History, though I liked them all but Art Awareness
Best Friends?: Olivia and Dakota
Clubs: I haven't joined any clubs
College Night: I don't even know what college night is
Residence: Commuter but I may live on campus next fall
Hobbies: Hanging out with family and friends
Caf: I've never been to the cafertia
Impact: I've really enjoyed the classes here in my first semester and I'm very excited for the future for me here
MN: This interview was done with someone who I knew for a good bit of time in my History class but I didn't know all that well at all. So this interview was a chance to get to know her a bit, and I really enjoyed the experience of the interview. She was very engaged in the interview despite not knowing much or eve being very interested in Sociology as a whole. Even though she isn't all that involved on campus and does not know what college night is, It didn't affect the interview in the slightest
TN: I think this interview was able to go so well because it was based more on her time before college and mining deep into that part of her life. This is her first semester on campus and coming in the spring it is really hard to get settled in and find your place on campus. We also focused a lot of what kept her from coming to school in the fall, which I thought was very interesting as this was the first person who I interviewed who did not come to school in the fall
PN: This interview took place outside and it was absolutely beautiful, and it really helped with the positive flow of the interview that it took place in such a nice setting. She was a very nice and sweet person so that helped the interview to be one of the most pleasant experiences I had doing this project, the only issue is I was very hungry, and my stomach kept moaning throughout the interview, but that hasn't not been the case with a lot of these interviews.
SN: She went to school at Chitla High School, and fairly small school but a lot of kids went to college. She always wanted to go to school and her parents have always pushed her to do her best as well. She decided to stay close to home because she had no interest leaving and she has multiple medical problems. She is currently undecided on her major. Her fears about college would be not being very smart and having to make new friends. Despite a rocky start on her first day of school, she has been able to settle in partly due to making friends with Dakota and Olivia. She is not in a club and somehow has never heard about college night. Though she is a commuter, she has been thinking about moving on to campus her next year. She loved her classes and how Montevallo has impacted her as a person.
