What advice would you give to incoming freshmen?
Get out of your room and get involved. There are endless opportunities at college. Getting involved is not just a way to build resume but a way to make lifelong friends. I know I have met some outstanding individuals that I know call friends and I would not have met them if I hadn’t taken a chance to gotten involved.
