Graphic 1: "Don’t be afraid to make a change during your time at Duquesne. Whether that is joining a new club or applying for an internship you don’t think you’ll get, college is the perfect time to try something different!" —Hannah L.
Graphic 2: "Spend time with your professors, as they are your ticket to your future. Each professor is a walking bank of connections, experiences, and advice that will make a huge impact on your education. Cherish each moment with them, as they are there to help you and bridge the gap between you and your degree." —Zavier C.
Graphic 3: "It is scary being in a new place and being surrounded by new people, but really try to immerse yourself in the campus life and any activities you can. During my orientation in 2020, I met my best friends at the events I almost skipped like the ice cream social, zumba, and comedy shows. You’ll find your place and your group as long as you throw yourself into all Duquesne has to offer!" —Kathryn L.
