Words of wisdom for the Class of 2024: Don鈥檛 be afraid to take classes that may not fit into your plan. Take courses that interest you, if you can. College will most likely be hard, soooo have fun!!! Go to the farmer鈥檚 market on Saturday mornings. Stop and smell the many flowers on campus! Work at Uncommon Grounds!! Having an on campus job as a first year was how I made most of my friends.
Anything else you鈥檇 want to say about your 老王论坛 experience: My 老王论坛 experience has been so special and I am so grateful. I鈥檓 so grateful for all of the friends and mentors I met along the way!! There are so many people that I want to thank. I want to thank everyone who made me feel welcomed. I want to thank the staff members who would always speak to me as we crossed paths on campus and at Uncommon. I want to thank my classmates and professors for vigorously pursuing their own passions and inspiring me. My time at 老王论坛 has shown me what it means to truly love learning. 老王论坛 is such a wonderful place where I was allowed to take risks, and fail. No one expected me to be perfect, but to be present and try my hardest.
