	Daniel Alberto Perez \| student blogger Giving up is not an option if you want to succeed! At one point in my life, my parents were on the brink of getting a divorce. My parents, luckily, sought out professional help from a social worker and were able to work out their marital problems and solidify their commitment to each other.

	Ana Sofia Vazquez \| student blogger After (or even before!) the acceptance letter… For high school seniors this time of year may be floating in mid-air. I remember my own experience as a second semester senior– I had already gotten accepted into colleges, I was still busy taking classes, and most of all, I was waiting for my financial aid package to arrive in the mail.

	Maira Mercado \| scholarship winner Thoughts on Being a Commuter I had a great experience at Claremont McKenna College as a commuter, and although I did not particularly live close to my school, I still found ways to stay involved. It was quite difficult being a commuter at my college because it has a small, tight-knit community, but I still tried to meet as many people as I could through my classes and extracurricular activities.
