As universities start filling with old and new students, there is a group on campus that you judge pretty harshly. They are the Orientation Leaders, the loud and obnoxious people that have so much school spirit it hurts. I am one of those people. I found this year that every single freshman student fits in six groups, think of it like the zodiac of college orientation.

The Clinger
This person is the one that responds in the group message the fastest, the also eat breakfast lunch and dinner with their orientation leader. This person is the type of person that latches on to the first person that they see, which is usually their roommate.

The Know-It-All
This person knows that the university that you are attending has a ratio of one to three on the amount of squirrels to rabbits. They are also the ones that are legacies, or the ones that have had a family member attend in the past. That being said, giving tours to these people are the worst. “My father said that...” “Well when my brother went here he talked about” like okay I get it you think that you are better than me, but who is the one giving the tour? That’s right, it’s me. Back off.

The Partiers
So I asked the kids in my group if they had any questions, and one seriously asked me where the parties are at on campus, like this kid was serious. These students care about one thing and one thing only, getting turnt. They also are the type to show up to all the events on welcome weekend just on the off chance someone would invite them to a rager in their dorm or something.

The Too-Cool-For-School
To be honest, these people are the worst. They don’t respond to anything that you send so you have no idea if they are coming to an event, but you also don’t know if they aren’t coming. They are also the types of people who don’t participate in icebreakers, Trust me I know they suck, but they are just ways to break the awkwardness.

The Future President
This person is so organized, so well put together, they are so put together it makes you sick. They are so high strung it feels like if you have them relax just for a second their entire life will spiral out of control. If you have this person if your group you are going to have a lot of questions about service hours and how to get involved on campus.

The Helicopter Child
These poor souls, they are so sheltered and the second that they have any sort of freedom one of two things happen. The first is that they will snap, that means they will have a mental breakdown and party like there is no tomorrow, because for them it feels like their parents might be there at any moment. The second is similar to the first, but for them they gain the responsibility to function with the rest of normal society.

The students you meet during the first weekend will start many friendships, good and bad. These are the people you will see around campus and other events, if you should be so lucky.
