It is our goal that by the time classes begin, you will be a member of the Rensselaer Community. What Freshmen Should Expect SO reflects real life at Rensselaer in that it is a blend of classroom, hands-on, and social experiences. Time spent in the classroom will include hearing about various campus resources, policies, and programs. In addition, you will participate in a series of interactive group activities facilitated by the Archer Center for Student Leadership Development.
Social interaction is constant, whether in residence halls, dining halls, or elsewhere on campus.
Before long, you will realize that the people surrounding you are not strangers but classmates. To reserve your session you will mail back the Red SO reply form in this packet by Friday, June 15, 2001. This nonrefundable fee will appear on your student account. Student Meals and Accommodations For Sessions 1 through 4, a residence hall room with linens and towels will be provided. Meals during orientation are provided by the campus dining service.
