Orientation has come and gone for most of you. It sure was fun wasn’t it? Psych. Orientation is simply a breeding ground for superficial friendships and conversation. I’d advise you to just forget it ever happened; it’s for the best.

You might have remarked how nice the orientation leaders were. Some of them might be, but they also got paid to be. Keep that in mind when you see them on campus and they don’t really want to talk to you without getting a paycheck.

The advisors lied to you. Disregard anything they have said to you. How can you trust someone that convinced you to take a class at 8:30 AM? You’ll seldom see your advisor. Most of the contact between you and your advisor will be through emails.

Orientation makes Ohio State seem like one big melting pot that works well together. It doesn’t. Ohio State is a large university that is sectionalized. You probably won’t meet more then ¾ of the population. As you take more and more major classes, the same people will be there.

Oh, so you got to meet some Facebook friends, huh? That was probably awkward. It’s a pretty messed up world when your first comment to someone is, “Aren’t we Facebook friends?”

I hope you didn’t agree to be an OWL. If you did, you’re a goddamn fool. You get to go through all the same bullshit as orientation all over again and have to help people move in…sucker.
