As I came down Warren Street, looking for the corner where my group would be meeting, I had no idea where I was. I am from Iowa, and Mankato, Minnesota is not a familiar town to me. I was scared that I would miss the whole session because I wouldn’t be able to find the meeting place! I saw the other students gathering outside the building and I let out a big sigh of relief. Finally, I knew I wasn’t lost! When I decided to come to school in Mankato, I knew that this town was neat. I think the campus is beautiful and the old downtown just amazes me. But what I didn’t know was how intricate and elaborate the buildings and streets were designed. We started the tour going uphill. I thought to myself, “this might end up to be very interesting.” My major here at Minnesota State University is construction management. After I get my degree, I plan to go to Iowa State University to get my masters in architecture. So, one could see how I find buildings and designs very interesting.
