Independence

Americans believe very strongly that all people are created equally and that everyone should have the opportunity to succeed regardless of his or her race, gender, or religion. Many believe that success can only be obtained through individual effort, so they tend to be very self-reliant and, at times, competitive.

In your studies at TC3 you will be asked to work in groups as well as independently. Group work will give you an excellent opportunity to observe and discuss this uniquely American level of independence.
