What Happened At Welcome Day?
So I wasn't able to attend welcome day but I'm curious as to what happened and what kind of tips were given. Could people who went give me some insight on some of the things that happened and what they talked about during the different sessions. Thanks.

umm i guess the sessions i';m most interested in are:
- debunking the myths
- first in the family
- health and safety (like what do i do if I get sick)
- and also i'd like to know what they showed in the library tours

FIRST IN THE FAMILY!

I'm one of the peer mentors for that! (I'm first gen too).

some of the things you missed:
- me making a goof of myself on a video
- challenges of a first gen
- a 15 minute mini lecture by Dr. Day, then working in groups to see how successful your notetaking was
- a 30 min library info session
- pizza lunch

there is also this thread which i will be updating in the next week or so: http://www.macinsiders.com/showthrea...t+gen eration

and this article: http://www.macinsiders.com/showthread.php?t=1719 1

we plan on running some biweekly sessions during the year, as well as a large session sometime in october (TBA, though).

Debunking the myths is more or less covered on this site. So you didn't miss much of that one.

And what to do if you're sick check out this article: http://www.macinsiders.com/showthrea...ampus+he alth
