pre-orientation trip?

<p>i was thinking about doing one of those "wilderness reflections" pre-orientation trips. has any current cornellians done these in the past? what did you like/dislike about it? did you feel rushed getting back to campus for orientation or anything after the trip? anything input would be great :) i'm thinking about either doing the mountain biking one or the canoeing one.</p>

<p>i really highly recommend going on some sort of pre-orientation thing. orientation itself is really overwhelming and it's great to have a group of people to hang out with and have dinner with those first few days. I did not feel rushed at all and for WR, registration is just upstairs from where you return all your stuff from your trip. the only thing that I didn't really like was having to leave home so early...but looking back it doesn't really matter.</p>

<p>(ps i might be a little biased b/c i'm going to be a guide for WR this summer :) )</p>

<p>So if we do go on a pre-orientation trip, do we bring our luggage?
If so, where is our luggage stored while we are on the trip?</p>

<p>yes you can bring your luggage. it will be stored on north campus during your trip and then you pick it up when you get back.</p>

<p>I'm going for the WR trip, but some of the forms have spaces for stuff like, "course name" or "trip number" and stuff like that. That's stuff I should wait to hear about from the WR people before I send the form in right?</p>

<p>I did WR and it was awesome!</p>

<p>As for the forms, contact the people listed on the WR site- they'll have the best answers to your questions about forms and technical things like that</p>
