It was a big weekend at Riverside. The place is coming alive with people! Suzanne and I spent some time Friday meeting the Riverside RAs. These folks have a wide variety of backgrounds and interests, and they seem like a fun bunch of people. We really enjoyed meeting students and their families as they checked in. This is a great time for students and their families. There's excitement, anticipation and some nervousness for everyone. A few years ago, our son Sam went to church camp for a week. He had a great time, but we were nervous and excited at the same time. UA is way bigger than camp, but I think our students will power through it. Their parents will, too!
Saturday afternoon, Suzanne and I walked up to the Supe Store to pick up a gift, and we really felt like we are part of campus. Riverside is convenient to everything, and we were happy to avail ourselves of the opportunity. It's just great to see the energy the new students are bringing to campus!
Saturday evening, Honors College had a cookout. Judging by the number of people who attended, there is a great deal of interest in welcoming our new students to campus.
