Page 82 text:

Orientation A Plus for Incoming Freshmen Most Freshmen want an answer to one question “What can I expect at college?” Though there’s no clear answer to the above question. Student Affairs and the Counseling Center tries to make incoming students transition to college life a smooth one. This is done by selecting upper classmen to serve as student orientation leaders. Student leaders aid incoming students by helping at registin-tion and conducting tours of the campus so that new students can acquaint themselves with the college facilities. Incoming students are assigned to advisors who are usually instructors in their particular area of study. These advisors usually advise students throughout their college life. Incoming students have the oppor- tunity to meet the President and department heads at the President’s reception for incoming freshmen. Further adjustment can be accomplished thur the counseling center which also sets up tutorial session for new students and upperclassmen experiencing difficulties. Freshmen orientation provides better understanding of college life for incoming students. 78—Freshmen Orientation
