A helping hand When thinking back to the first day of high school, do you remember how lonely and overwhelmed you were in the new environment? Now remembering the first day here at Fairmont State, didn ' t you feel the same? No matter where you came from, getting acquainted with college life seemed impossible. Every facet of college life needs some guidance and Freshman Orien- tation is no exception. This guidance is provided by up- perclassmen who are counselors to aid newcomers in the start of college life. Seventy counselors were chosen from approximately 100 applicants based on personality, grades, community and college activities by William Bailey and Michael Bel- mear, Student Affairs counselors. L L A freshman counselor is • a role model. He must a be able to show empa- thy and project confidence. We feel it ' s an important time on campus and we ' re lucky that we get the cream of the crop of freshman counselors. And it is important to realize that this is strictly a volunteer project and the counselors give it their all, agreed Bailey and Belmear. Freshmen counselors attended a training session Aug. 19 and 20 at Jackson ' s Mill to learn to work as a team and how to generate and limit conversation. The focal point was how to involve quiet students to make them feel like they belong. A freshman counselor is a role model, said Bailey. He must be able to show empathy and project an image of confidence with which he can best assist freshmen in their transition to college life. EVOKING spirit among freshmen, upper- classmen counselors chant and clap. MASTER CHEF Kevin O ' Brien grills hot dogs for hungry freshmen during the picnic behind the Library Building.
