In a “Message to My Incoming Freshman,” Professor Keith M. Parsons argues that incoming college freshman students are immature and unprepared for the “culture shock” of a university. Parsons’ constantly reiterates this opinion throughout his online blogpost with a multitude of examples, which are supported by his previous interactions with first year students. On one hand, Parsons claims that not all freshman students misbehave and that only some students are frequently absent, and/or constantly distracted in class. However, on the other hand he is still judgmental to freshmen as he continues his opening statement. Parsons’ is convinced that first year students would be uneducated in the differences between high school and university.
