My Best Memory From My First Year At SMC: Rollerblading on the Burlington waterfront bike trail during sunset! The whole sky was full of gorgeous colors, you could see the mountains for miles, and the lake looked beautiful with all the boats floating by!
One Thing I Wish I Knew Before I Moved In My First Year: Go to your professor's office hours, be involved with one club on campus you're passionate about, and be involved with one club on campus you want to try for the first time. Put yourself out there. If it interests you, go for it. Do it. Get out there. Try it. College is all about growing. Give yourself the opportunities to grow.
