Here's some advice from your Orientation Leaders:
Coming to college can be full of expections- both real and imagined. There will be many different opportunities competing for your attention. Some will be encouraging your to go out all the time and to not think of college as the "real world." We want to remind you that college is real and your experiences here matter.
We encourage you to immerse yourself in your coursework- read the textbook, listen to lectures, do the homework ahead of time!
Go to Expo '11 to check out all the clubs and organizations on campus. We are sure you will find something for you.
Even though many of us are involved with a fraternity or sorority, don't feel pressured to join a Greek Letter Organization. And remember, freshmen can't pledge their first semester. If you are told otherwise, it is an unrecognized group. If they tell you they are seeking recognition, check it out on the Greek Life website.
Attend a play, a concert, an art gallery opening, an athletic event! These are great ways to connect with our community.
Discuss much and listen to other's opinions.
Enjoy your time at SUNY Oneonta- make the most of your experience- we have and will continue to do so!
Best wishes,
Your 2011 Orientation Leaders
