A subscription to THE JEWISH NEWS 1-810-354-6620 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."
