our homework, and even communication are all examples of how technology has evolved simple tasks. Even furthermore, technology has changed the way education has been taught and received in American classrooms. However, technology was not always so highly advanced in American schools.

I sat in the auditorium at Mount St. Mary’s University with about 400 of my new classmates, and the fact that I was a first-year student in college became my new reality. My family drove away after a few tears were shed, and I was left to navigate myself through the awkward ice breakers, overwhelming amount of information during New Student Orientation, and subpar meals in the dining hall.
