<p>No...? Nothing special anyways. They may have one of those sheets that are exactly the same as the pdf one available online.</p>
<p>yeah, my OC wasn't very accomdating.</p>
<p>yeah, they did give out a map. wasn't that helpful, you'll be following around your counselor most of the time.</p>
<p>There are map/information posts around campus and I'm sure you could find a map somewhere. It's not that hard to navigate and you really have to try to get lost.</p>
<p>or, you can just stick your Bruincard on your forehead and receive help instantly. :rolleyes:</p>
<p>haha, i tried that, it didn't work. :(</p>
<p>HAHA... as in the Bruincard didn't stick or help didn't come? :P</p>
<p>the card stuck, help didn't come. :)</p>
<p>I'm confused about the laptop part. How do you connect your laptop to the Internet? Is there wireless? And I'm not exactly sure how wireless connection works together :( I heard you need a flash drive and I already have one, but other than that what else? Thanks for all the inputs!</p>
<p>read about my experience (from an engineering perspective) here:</p>
<p>bring good shoes and sunblock and sunglasses :) attend as many workshops as possible. go to the scavenger hunt. </p>
<p>the speeches were not as dry as i expected them to be. </p>
<p>you won't get lost. you're going to the same places over and over so don't worry about that!</p>
<p>and yea i agree with other posters --- when i arrived i noticed there already being HS groups of friends.</p>
<p>Bringing a blanket is a good idea too. It's FREEZING at night, because of the AC. Either I couldn't find the "off" button, or it doesn't exist.</p>
<p>yeah how about that ac. i tried turning the thermo up and it only goes to 75. and that didnt change a thing. for current plaza residents, can you turn the AC off</p>
<p>Citan: I liked your little journal write. I'm actually going to the freshman orientation, but it was interesting to read about your experience...and I think that there will be some similarities between our orientations.</p>
<p>is there time given to take a photo for the bruin card?</p>
<p>Time is given on the first day of the session in the morning.</p>
<p>Namaste, yes you should be able to turn the A/C off. however, the fan doesn't actually turn off... it's either on or on auto. at least that's how it is in De Neve...</p>
<p>as far as order of signing up for classes... my OC let ppl with laptops sign themselves up with the wireless in his room. the people using his computers went in a logical order of trickier schedules going first (if you want a class of 20 people and there's 19 in it, you go first).
in other words, get george as your OC and you're fine! :)</p>
<p>haha..george...man...that guy cracks me up =P</p>
<p>Zoolander parody... :rolleyes: :p</p>
