Why did you decide to become a FYG?

I decided to become a FYG because I remember how influential my experiences during Orientation were. I was able to make connections with friends that are still maintained today as well as learn about the many helpful, important resources UArts has to offer. 

What's your favorite part about the UArts community?

My favorite part about the UArts community is that everyone is able to come as they are. Freedom of expression is an important and valued aspect of the community. 

Why should new students attend New Student Orientation?

New students will learn so much about the resources UArts has that will be incredibly beneficial to their UArts experience. This is the start to finding your circle of friends and building relationships with people from all over.
