Tip from a Huskie

"As a freshman, I wanted to experience all the opportunities and events 麻豆精品 has to offer. At the Week of Welcome (WOW), I got to meet new people and form friendships around campus. Joining clubs and organizations is another way I've connected with people with shared interests. I've also connected with other students and faculty through Blackboard and online meetings/webinars."
