Freshman orientation to begin

·

Tuesday marks the beginning of what many veteran students may remember as their first small taste of IU. New student orientation, which begins tomorrow and runs through July 19, is a service that seeks to instill more than 6,500 students with what it's like to be on a college campus and what they can expect come fall. "Students do quite a bit of stuff," said Melanie Payne, associate director of orientation programs. "There are some very specific things about becoming a student that they need to learn." Some programming includes alcohol and drug safety advice, roommate information and transition training. Along with the specific specialized sessions, students also get their picture taken, receive their student ID and campus access cards and register for classes.
