photo hy Misha Gardner laces as T 7 week before school started was a busy time at University of Arkansas. It was the week that hall s c LKents fr° m a h over moved into the residence the si U ents didn ' t just come from Arkansas and far a, rroun ding states, but also from pi For 7 ( a orn i a an d Canada. an evn enee oec i : ' moving into Reid was fun! nence - Five flights of stairs is not even l et Wa iug for the elevator took first ° n er ' f° r the room itself, the BoerR lm ?j eSS 0n wasnt that great!

I -ouldn ' t f ervous at first, this place is just huge. I ln m y Wa y around at first, but now I know where everything is and it almost seems tiny! ' Kweku Hayfron, a resident assistant at Walton, helped move people in while meeting his new residents. On the first day that students were moving in a bunch of us RAs gathered at the front desk to welcome them and introduce ourselves. Then I walked around and got to know the students and their families. I helped bring things in and it gave me the opportunity to bond with my res¬ idents and allow them see me as a friend and not just as an authority figure Hayfron said. Students didn ' t just move into residence halls that week; many also moved into apartments. Casey Johnson who moved into College Park said, I was really excited when I first moved in. This is the first time I ' ve lived on my own and it was kind of overwhelming, but exciting! 1 Excited, nervous, hectic and really long all seem to cover what it was like for stu¬ dents who experienced moving-in day, whether into residence halls or off-campus accommodations. Many students don ' t want to repeat the experience any¬ time soon, but they also would not trade the day for any¬ thing because it meant freedom, however you look at it. -Story by Missy Nauman Move-In 11 Day Campus Life
