Generalization
After graduating from high school, students leave homes and start their lives in the campus. Campus is like a second family, where all students of different ages live together. In the campus, we can meet people from all around the country, even foreign students. For the first time, we have to take care of ourselves. Naturally, many boys and girls have a hard time adapting to the new environment.
Therefore, if you want to know more about campus, please go on reading. The following gives you plenty of English words and expression you may want to use when it comes to campus.

Registration
Advisor: hello, are you Karen Beauchamp?
Student: yes, I am. I am sorry I’m late for my appointment but there was an incident on the bridge and traffic was backed up.
Advisor: that’s okay. I am Rodney. How can I help you?
Student: how are my registration and time determined?
Advisor: are you a first year student?
Student: yes, I am.
Advisor: first year student are mailed a designated date and specific time with
39
their admission letter. Have you received your admission letter?
Student: yes, I have, but I also have some questions on how to pay for the courses. How do I pay if I don’t use a credit card?
Advisor: other options are, by going to a bank and paying the teller the amount on your course confirmation slip, or by coming to the campus and paying in-person at the student services building on the third floor.
Missed Class
A: Hi, Alan.
B: Hi Rachel. I did not feel good yesterday, and couldn’t make it to class. Because I am not doing well in this course, I am wondering what Dr. Millard in class yesterday.
A: Well, we had a lecture on sustainable development in forests. Dr. Millard pointed out some of the advantages and disadvantages of clear-cut logging.
B: I noticed the next chapter in our textbook is called “sustainable development”. Chapter 6, isn’t it?
A: Yes, we covered the first part of chapter 6. He told us to read from pages 156 to 170. Also, during the last half of class we divided into groups of three for a project. The groups had to come up with their own topic on some aspect of
40
sustainable development. A couple of groups seemed quite focused. The project is due a week from Friday.
B: Was I put in a group?
A: I don’t think so. There were about 4 or 5 students missing today. Perhaps, if you showed up for class early on Wednesday and spoke with Dr. Millard, he could assign you to a group.
B: Did you take lectures notes?
A: Yes, I did. I was just going to transcribe them and put them on my computer. Would you like me to email them to you?
B: Oh, yes. Thanks very much.
At the library
Student: oh, hi, this book is due today, and I am not quite finished with it. Is it possible to get it renewed?
Librarian: hmm, French Art & Architecture of the 19th Century. I’ll have to check to see if that’s possible. Can I have the book and your library card please?
Student: sure, here you are. I just need it for a few more days if possible.
41
Librarian: well, first off this book is 1 week late, and not due today as you thought. It appears you have your dates mixed up. There are also a few requests for this book so it is now on hold for the next person. Now there’s a small fine on your card of $ 1.40 for the overdue book, would you like to pay this today?
Student: umm, so if I pay the fine today, can I take this book out again?
Librarian: you won’t be able to take this book out again until all the other people who have placed holds on it have signed it out.
Student: oh, okay.
Changing plans
A: Hey, Stanley. Is it true you’re dropping math 101?
B: well, it’s either I drop math or I’ll fail.
A: you’ll fail?
B: yes, my average is only 32.9%. I failed the last three tests.
A: wow, that’s rough. Do you think you can get into med school without math?
B: well, actually plans have changed. I’m thinking of becoming a car
42
mechanic.
A: no kidding, so now you want to be a car doctor!
B: yes, that’s my new career aspiration, as long as I can get driver’s license.
