Ready set. One, two, one two three and
There's thirteen hundred Freshman in the Freshman class so probably about seventy five percent of them will
come in today.
Where you from? I'm from Texas. I'm from New York.
I'm from Black River, NY. From Rhode Island. Vero Beach, Florida. Where you from? Just south of Buffalo, NY. From Ithaca, NY. We live in Massachusetts.
Northern Virginia, Herndon. LA, California.
What's the weirdest thing you've brought from home? The weirdest thing I brought
with me,
Mexican chili powder that I sprinkle on my food. Violin, probably. My cactus.
Those are really pretty. Oh, I drew a brain to put in my dorm room because I'm majoring in Brain & Cognitive Sciences. I brought a little,
a little toaster from my favorite taco place. Plants aren't weird, are they? I brought these plants.
Jumper cables because they were in the trunk. This one is Jeremiah and
this one is Jeffrey. We tried to downplay her weirdness when she was packing. How often
do you plan on contacting your family?
Maybe like once a week. A little bit. Not much. A couple times a month.
Only once a week. Every day. Maybe every day
every other day.
At least multiple times a week at least you know at the beginning. We figure out
what works for us. Probably the longer you call them, like every five minutes, if possible, but I don't know, maybe a few times during the week. How often do you want your student to contact you? Twice a week. Every day. Whatever she is comfortable with? I'm
planning to move in and start studying myself. I wish she called me at least daily, once. Every day, yes, every day is correct. Three times a week
would make me very happy. I don't know how it happened.
We took the floor and she said, why don't you, da, da da, do, do, da, da, da, do, do, da, da, da, do, do, da, da, da, do, do, da, da, da, . We are selling plants for the pep band to keep in their dorm room through their Freshman year. A lot of our members actually have had their plants. There on there third
or fourth year. They've survived a pretty a long time.
So, this is "Stop and Shop". So, in the spring when everyone leaves, the upperclassman drop off things they don't
want anymore at different locations which is called "Dump and Run" and then we store in the sunroom, sell it back to Freshman. So, just all about re-using things and not throwing them out. I am
getting this lovely bin here. This will be for all of my excess things that I don't have anywhere to put right now.
I'm here with University IT and we're here to welcome Incoming Freshman. Woo Hoo! So these are the shirts that we give out to all the students that come through the Expo.
We design a new shirt each year. It's available only one day a year. So, there's groups from all
over.
Dining Services. We're from University IT. There's Wilson Commons. A lot of the student groups are here.
So right now, the "Class of 2019" is signing the class roll where they're officially becoming a member of their class. The parents are going off to a BBQ and then the students go and
meet with their RA, there first kind of
parting of the ways. What will you miss the most about your student? Just talking to her. She makes me laugh. Finding things. Everything that's missing, he can find it.
You know he's in the basement shadowing his own stuff. I know he's there.
But, now, oh. Remain close. Everything happy.
She played with my daughter, with her sisters. Oh my gosh, I'm going to cry. Oh no. Her energy at home, I think, her positive energy and I don't know,
just, yeah and just having her part of our family and her jokes and yeah.
