Life in Vermillion

Growing up in New Jersey, I never realized how secluded a town could be. In New Jersey towns are seperated by roads since they all pretty much border each other. Towns in South Dakota are seperated by miles and miles of farms. Although I have visited the state at least once a year, for seventeen years, it is completely different actually living here. It is a difficult transition, that some (including myself) cannot handle!! In class it was good to see that I was not the only one transferrring away from USD. I would like to know their reasons for leaving. It would be an interesting class discussion.
