Customer Reviews
Comprehensive experiential information
I wasn’t sure I would learn anything new after attending introduction this summer with my student, but I have learned a few things and had some of my questions answered by listening to each of these podcasts. It has help me realize there are some things I hadn’t thought about related to health care coverage, student health center, conversations I should have with my student before they start in the fall, things to bring or not to bring, and the importance of students attending the student programming during week of welcome. I also feel a lot better about the dining program after listening to the issue on university dining. Thank you so much for all of this comprehensive information! Some of it is not news since my student is transferring after her first year at another college but this is a new place with a new way of doing things.
