“I’m grateful how welcoming Brooks was when I transferred here. Something I learned is that you’re supposed to try new things. You’re supposed to step outside your comfort zone.

If you see someone, even if you don’t know their name, just give a simple, “Hey, how’s it going? How’s your morning? I think it allows for conversation, which is great.” - Harryns Cantave ‘26
