You’ve probably already had a lot of practice in this regard, scaredy, but I think part of the university experience is receiving exposure to all kinds of people from all walks of life and learning to speak, act (and move) with more grace and confidence.
Aside from the academics and degree obtained, I look to university as a type of “finishing school” experience for my kids and so far, I haven’t been disappointed.
The CA public HS experience doesn’t exactly lend itself to practical preparation for adulthood, IMO.
