    • "Ask lots of questions and listen to the advice of others but make your own decisions.When I was in school I was never really afraid to ask for a favor. If a professor had the knowledge to help me out I would go and bug that professor. If there was a graduate student, I would go and bug that graduate student. When there were tutors, I would be in a tutor’s office until they would kick me out. It was all about putting in the time for me."
