As I begin my third year at Weber State University, I think back to my first year as a freshman. Starting college can be scary. You are no longer surrounded by the people who you attended school with your entire life, many no longer live with their parents, and most of us experience our first taste of adulthood.
Though starting college is scary, it’s also the beginning of something great. Regardless of what you’re studying, college is a time for self exploration and honing in your skills. It’s a time to make friends, join clubs (like The Signpost) and learn things about yourself that you may not have known before.
Weber offers a variety of clubs, safe spaces and opportunities for anyone, regardless of their background, at a financially accessible rate. Rated the best school for Return on Interest in Utah by the New Utah Foundation, WSU prioritizes quality of education.
My advice to new Weber State students, regardless of your age, major or campus location is to get involved. There are opportunities all over campus, both in person and virtually to get involved.
Getting involved is the best way to find your passion and to find a community of people who will help you grow in your career and personal life. Regardless of if you join a club, attend departmental events or join campus recreation trips, campus involvement is how you make WSU feel like home.
Welcome to Weber State University!
