Favorite Local Shop or Restaurant
Chef Paolino. It's an Italian restaurant about five minutes from campus. They have the best cannolis.
During my first semester, I wish I would have known...
how easy it was to make friends by just getting out of your room and doing what you like.
My advice to prospective students...
is use your passions and interests to discover different clubs, organizations, groups, jobs, and so on. This will allow you to meet new people, find study partners/groups, and open the door to future opportunities.
Favorite Spot on Campus
Fireside Lounge. It's on the third floor of The Commons and has some very cozy chairs while encouraging a quiet studying environment.
