Page 7 Introduction

Page 8 College is a special time in any person's life. Where else can you study philosophy in the morning, play mud football in the afternoon, attend a jazz recital in the evening and dance on the furniture at midnight? In terms of opportunities per square foot, a college campus just can't be beat. College also represents a challenging transition. Going to college means a new address, new friends, new relationships with family members, new responsibilities, new knowledge and new freedom. It is a period of simultaneous confusion, excitement and growth.

Page 9 This book provides suggestions and ideas for all areas of college life-academics, dorm life, extracurricular activi people, social life, the arts and family. We've also included a "Getting started" section that foc on preparing for and moving to college. Be sure to read it and pass the information on to your future roommate well as your other college-bound friends. We want to stress that this is an idea book. There are hundreds of great ideas here and we encourage you to those that interest you. But we could never capture all

Page 10 possibilities of a college career in any book. More than anything, we hope our ideas will help to inspire your own ideas for success and adventure on campus. If you would like to share your ideas, we'd love to hear from you. Write us in care of the publisher, or e-mail us at steve@demand.com.

Page 12 As an incoming freshman, it is only natural to experience a mixture of excitement and apprehension. Moving from the comfort of your home to the vast unknown of a college campus may seem a bit intimidating, but it will prove to be a rewarding step forward. After even a few days on campus, you'll begin to feel that your new home is like-home. Because you are entering a whole new world, it is difficult to know what to bring with you. In general, we recommend underpacking rather than overpacking, but we've listed several necessities that you should not leave home without.
