The brain of an 18-year-old college freshman is still far from resembling the brain of someone in their mid-twenties. When do we reach adulthood? It might be much later than we traditionally think.

I really wanted to be a doctor, until my freshman year of college when I realized that while I was good at chemistry and biology, I really wasn't feeling challenged by it.

I attended the University of Louisville my freshman year, transferred to what was then Western Kentucky State Teachers College for my sophomore and junior years, and then graduated from the University of Louisville in the summer of 1961.

I was disappointed not to go last year after making it my freshman year. I wanted to get back and place higher than I did two years ago.

My freshman year of high school was just awkwardness all around.

Most of my freshman year at USC, I'd just been partying, and I had zero direction.
