INTRODUCTION

“Home is where my books are”
In Fall 2013, I started my new life at EIU. Since I came here, EIU has been my second home. I lived one year in the dorm, and we were like a family there. Moreover, what I like most about here is how the professors are very helpful whether inside or outside of class. And of course I will not forget the international students office and how they try to gather the international students as a family. What is most important here for students who don’t have a high income, is the text book rental services. We don’t need to buy the books for classes, we just rent them!
