- [00:00:03.970]Orientation leaders take the stage,
- [00:00:05.910]ready to share their campus with a new group of Huskers.
- [00:00:10.409]Go Huskers!
- [00:00:12.130]When I went through orientation in 2019,
- [00:00:14.850]I had the best time of my life
- [00:00:16.830]and I was really welcomed to campus.
- [00:00:18.960]And I wanted to extend that warm welcome to other students.
- [00:00:21.930]It's time to pick up your N card,
- [00:00:23.890]ask about tickets, learn what you can do after class.
- [00:00:27.480]I am discovering all the clubs and stuff
- [00:00:31.235]and figuring out what I'm going to do
- [00:00:32.670]for the rest of the year.
- [00:00:34.140]And it's time to make new friends.
- [00:00:36.540]Emily Nelson met her roommate
- [00:00:38.180]in person after connecting online.
- [00:00:40.910]I texted in the Nebraska chat, "who likes 'Dance Moms?'"
- [00:00:44.070]And she said "me" and we became roommates.
- [00:00:46.210]Emily and her dad made the seven hour drive
- [00:00:48.540]from their Chicago suburb to be here.
- [00:00:50.750]When you experience it live and in person
- [00:00:52.670]and see the excitement and feel the energy,
- [00:00:54.880]that was something that we did not want to miss.
- [00:00:57.000]Morning, everybody.
- [00:00:58.320]Nebraska is the only Big 10 school
- [00:01:00.890]to host a traditional on-campus orientation this summer.
- [00:01:04.660]We've just been so excited to host them
- [00:01:06.510]and just be a place where they can get good information
- [00:01:08.870]and again start building that community.
- [00:01:10.660]And so it's been so rewarding this summer.
- [00:01:12.700]One change this year,
- [00:01:14.030]advising sessions were moved to Zoom
- [00:01:16.480]so that each student gets a full hour
- [00:01:18.690]in the comfort of their own home.
- [00:01:20.630]I was much more comfortable, much more stress-free
- [00:01:22.760]they can have those conversations with their advisor
- [00:01:25.110]not only about fall semester, but future planning as well.
- [00:01:28.380]For Victor Thoms,
- [00:01:29.540]today is about dipping a toe in the water.
- [00:01:32.250]It's a way to give like a sneak peek
- [00:01:34.550]to the experience that I'm going to be getting in August.
- [00:01:37.920]Go Huskers!
- [00:01:40.120]Man, just to get back around people is so nice,
- [00:01:43.220]just to feel people again,
- [00:01:45.280]and talk to people, see the smile, right?
- [00:01:47.090]Get the mask off.
- [00:01:48.510]It's a return to campus that just feels good.
- [00:01:52.608]Go big red, go big red!
