Thank You To Our Orientation Guides
UNR

Orientation is something every student has to go through when first attending a new university. I went through orientation in the summer of 2013, and I was not excited at all. I did not want to attend the University of Nevada after living here my whole life. I woke up that day very grumpy about having to drive all the way to campus when I already knew about the school, but I wanted to be able to register for my classes so there was my motivator.

Every single one of you has been through orientation. So, my long story short -- the excitement radiating off of the out-of-state students and most especially, the orientation guides, radiated onto me. After orientation, I was so excited to attend the University of Nevada.

I want to thank the orientation guides for doing what they do for our great university.

1. Thank you for showing what it means to be a NEVADA student (#PackPride).

2. Thank you for being the best representatives for our school to the incoming freshmen and transfer students.

3. Thank you for getting students excited to come to the University of Nevada.

4. Thank you for explaining the basis of different traditions on campus.

5. Thank you for being cheerful every time you do orientation.

6. Thank you for telling students about different resources on campus.

7. Thank you for giving students clarity on various topics.

8. Thank you for making orientation fun and exciting.

9. Thank you for sharing your experiences as a NEVADA student.

10. Thank you for being our role models to younger students.

11. Thank you for pushing students to get involved in school.

12. Thank you for welcoming the future of the University of Nevada.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
