"Talk to your professors. First it will help with understanding material in class as you can ask all the stupid questions you want. Secondly, It will help you create a repertoire with them that will undoubtedly lead to them giving you the benefit of the doubt when you eventually make a mistake. And finally, it will teach you some important social skills that you will need when you get a job and need to talk to higher ups."

"Don't be afraid to advocate for yourself. If you are struggling with material, reach out to your professors in office hours. If you need accommodations, reach out to academic advising. There are supports that exist to help you through, but only if you have the courage to reach out."
