Zumba! I signed up for a class at Burdick and ended up meeting one of my best friends, and now roommate, there.
To accept change rather than fight it. Going away to school can be scary and can lead to a lot of anxieties, but being open to all new experiences can help the transition go smoother.
I wish I would have known how to balance my social and academic life. Being fully independent and away from home can cause some people, including my past self, to go a little crazy. There is no one to tell you to go to class or to do your homework so you need to have some self discipline. It is 100% possible to be social and get all your work done, you just need to find that balance.
My favorite spot on campus is the Liberal Arts Building. Because of my major I spend the majority of my time there, so its really grown on me. It's a beautiful building with so many spaces for you to work in between classes!
