Onwards and Upwards
Sep 15th, 2008 by Eli
So, as the class of 2012 makes friends with each other, I’m finding that I get fewer and fewer questions about where buildings are and who to talk to about different issues. It seems like people are A) figuring out the answers themselves or B) finding friends who know the answer. Thus, I think I can call the Orientation of the class of 2012 a success, and move on to you new folks! The class of 2013!
That’s right, class of 2013! Most of you probably still think of yourselves as the class of 2009, but soon enough, you’ll have that magical moment when 2009 is in the past, and you’re looking forward to the next four years. Or maybe you won’t. Maybe it will be completely insignificant. Either way, it’ll happen. Just like in elementary school, middle school and high school, you go from the oldest group of kids around to the youngest group around. You’re the most experienced, then you’re the least experienced.
No worries, though. There’s help along the way. If you’re a high school senior thinking about Goucher, the best thing you can do for yourself is visit (if you haven’t already). Take a tour, sit in on a class, whatever you have time for. Come to Explore Goucher Day. It’s buckets of fun, and you’ll get to see me and my pyrate friends selling delicious cupcakes. As always, ask questions. Lots of questions. I say it every post, but send me questions at eli.cohen@goucher.edu. If you’re considering Goucher, you’re doing yourself a disservice by not getting all the information you can about it. There’s a lot more here than just in the brochure.
