Why did you choose to work for VT orientation? I felt like I owed it to the Orientation team, since they helped me out so much when I first transferred here. My counselor stayed in touch with me throughout first semester, and I hope I can help someone else out as much as she helped me.

The most helpful advice I received as an incoming student at VT: The most helpful advice I received as an incoming student was "follow your heart." When I left home to come to Virginia Tech my mother told me to follow my heart and that is what I have done. By doing that I have been able to grow and broaden my perspectives in numerous topics that I enjoy. Also when one follows their heart they tend to be happier people, I am the happiest I have ever been. |
