ou just spent more
than a year preparing
to go to college. You
read college guides
and talked to your guidance
counselor. You worried about
your grades, took a million tests,
labored over essays that would
make you stand out as an indi-
vidual and then bit your nails
until April.
Now, your work has paid off,
your security deposit is in, and
you're about to be a bona fide
college student. What happens
now?
For those of you without old-
er friends or siblings, entering
college as a freshman can be
overwhelming. To help you out,
we asked some current college
students for tips — both big and
small — to make the first year
a little smoother.
Maybe for the movie The
Graduate the word was "plas-
tics," but for undergraduates the
word is "quarters." Several stu-
dents mentioned the importance
of these 25-centers in the life of
a dorm resident.
"I wish I had started saving
quarters for the laundry ma-
chines and late-night snacks
from the vending machine well
before I got to school," said Lisa
Zaks, a student at Emory Uni-
versity who graduated from
North Farmington High School.
Mara Reinstein, a student at
University of Missouri, also from
North Farmington, agreed,
adding that the coins come in
handy for parking meters as
well.
In addition to loading up
on spare change, food is a big
issue. "My advice to all seniors
in high school making the
leap into college life can be
summed up in one word: mi-
crowave. Get one, get two if nec-
essary," said Andrew Rudick, --\
who just graduated from Michi-
gan State.
"Any dorm that you live in is
going to have 50 percent less
quality food than you had at
sleep-away camp. Demand that
your parents buy you a mi-
crowave and a membership to a
bulk food warehouse so you can
survive your first year," he ,–/
added.
Mr. Rudick, who graduated
from Farmington Harrison High
School, also stressed the impor-
tance of fast food. "It is a staple
food for freshmen," he said. "You
are going to order it, and deliv-
ery people will soon know your
name well. It is inevitable!"
Ms. Zaks echoed the concern
about food, stating that she
wished she had taken a cooking
class so she could "make some-
thing besides pasta, frozen foods
and ... pasta."
