I am currently a freshman studying to become a high school history teacher at the University of TexasЖBrownsville. While trying to register online for my Spring 2006 classes, the system informed me that I was not eligible to sign up for classes because I was put in academic suspension. Since I have put myself in this predicament, it is up to me to get myself out of it. I do not have anyone to blame for this but myself; I simply have not been doing as well as I could be. One of the reasons I must stay in college is to further my education and have something to be proud ofЖa degree. If I am not given another opportunity to improve academically, I am positive I will not be able to live as successfully as I would have been able to with a college education. I will reorganize my priorities to make school the most important; I need to do everything possible to make the grades I need. I am no longer in denial that I need help. I plan to go to the Learning Assistance Center for help when I struggle with assignments and when I need to perfect a certain subject matter. I will go to the LAC with an open mind and realize that there are people who are willing to help others like me who are struggling with classes. In addition, I will find class tutors and join study groups that will assist me in learning material for the specific classes in which I will be taking. Also, I will no longer ignore extra credit assignments teachers offer, I will begin taking advantage of chances to improve my grade. Even though it might seem tough and nearly impossible, I need to believe that I can truly do well in school. Maybe it had to come to thisЖacademic suspensionЖto realize that I need to rid myself of mixed feelings about school. I assure you, I am going to do the best I can and pass all my classes because I am not willing to risk the chances of no longer being able to attend UTB. Thank you for your time.
