Move In Le t me introduce myself, my name is Herm, and I’ll be guiding you Through RIT and rhe 1985 Student Life section. This is my first year here at RIT, so I'm new. I’ve written a diary of my days here on campus. The nice Techmila staff have been my friends throughout the year, so 1 let them read my diary. They liked it, and asked if they could use it. Since they were nice to me, I told them they could. My diary, like my life at RIT starred in September . .. I met a lot of people right away. The SOS staff helped me to move in, They must have been very busy, helping everyone wirh their luggage and showing them around. I had the fun task of bringing it upstairs and putting it away. It seems so scary being here. I have a real nerd for a roommate. I'm in rhe tallest building on campus, 1 met my RA today — He's really nice. He does funny things wirh his hands when he talks. My RA told me I should make sure I’m familiar wirh the campus before classes begin, so maybe I'll do that now. We had our first floor meeting last night. I found out those things he was doing with his hands is known as sign language. It’s so the deaf people on our floor know what he is saying I wrent to Grace Watson Dining Hall for breakfast and lunch. I'm going to really like eating there. They have such good food, and I can eat all I want. Yesterday on my tour 1 got lost, so I really don't know much more about the campus. Oh well! I’ve met many nice people who have come from all over to go to R.I.T. I’m beginning to be able to pick out people’s majors by the first impression.
