Hey All,
I’m Paul Nyakatura , 4th year student here at K-State. To be honest, I’m not the most studious person you’re gonna come across in your days here at KSU, but I’m still here. One crucial thing I learned that has kept me here amidst all my academic shortcomings is that I found my “real” adviser. Some of you out there have been assigned an adviser from your department that is helpful and knowledgeable about guiding you through the politics of the university. Most of us, however, weren’t so fortunate. Luckily for me, early in my freshman year I met Mrs. Laverne Bitsie-Baldwin, Director of the Multicultural Engineering Program in the College of Engineering. Mrs. Baldwin cleared up plenty of things about the university that my assigned adviser left cloudy, as well as educating me on the ins-and-outs of the university and how to “navigate” it successfully. What a lot of multicultural students fail to realize is that there is someone like this in each College, not only willing to help you out, but eager to do so. Mrs. Baldwin even assisted me with a list of individuals in each College who do similar work to that of herself. Feel free to call these people or schedule appointments to meet with them. Some even allow walk-ins.
