[00:00:05.000]My fellow Huskers,
[00:00:06.291]welcome to the 2023 fall semester
[00:00:09.416]and our first academic year together.
[00:00:12.375]Whether you are returning, students continuing academic pursuits,
[00:00:16.958]or new faces eager to begin your university experience,
[00:00:21.458]this promises to be a year filled with growth and discovery.
[00:00:26.208]The University of Nebraska-Lincoln is not simply a place of red brick and mortar,
[00:00:31.583]this is a home to a vibrant community where dreams are realized,
[00:00:36.208]ideas are sparked and futures are shaped.
[00:00:40.375]Our university is truly a special place,
[00:00:44.000]one where our community believes in the potential of every person,
[00:00:48.958]where we combine strengths to accomplish big things.
[00:00:52.750]In your studies, be sure to actively engage with instructors.
[00:00:56.875]They are not just educators.
[00:00:58.916]They are partners in your educational journey.
[00:01:02.708]Their mentorship and expertise are valuable resources
[00:01:06.958]that can shape your academic and personal development.
[00:01:11.708]On campus, reach out to others and forge friendships whenever possible.
[00:01:17.416]These college years will be counted among the best in your lives,
[00:01:22.250]and the connections you make will extend far beyond our academic hallways
[00:01:27.750]and serve you for a lifetime.
[00:01:30.666]Also, look out for each other.
[00:01:33.416]Do not be a bystander.
[00:01:35.208]If you see something that could put a fellow Husker in danger,
[00:01:38.583]speak up.
[00:01:39.916]If you encounter a negative experience yourself,
[00:01:42.916]tell someone.
[00:01:44.625]Know that you are never alone
[00:01:47.125]at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln.
[00:01:50.000]We offer many student supports
[00:01:53.416]and there is always a helping hand available here.
[00:01:57.458]Beyond our lecture halls and labs,
[00:01:59.500]I challenge you to step outside of your comfort zone at every opportunity.
[00:02:04.791]Join a student club or activity.
[00:02:07.500]Get involved in research.
[00:02:09.958]Take advantage of internships. Engage internationally.
[00:02:14.875]This is your chance to explore.
[00:02:17.375]Embrace that thought,
[00:02:19.916]and always seek opportunities
[00:02:21.958]that offer you first-time experiences.
[00:02:25.833]A university is not just a place to earn a degree.
[00:02:29.500]It is a place to cultivate skills, perspectives and develop
[00:02:34.083]a sense of purpose.
[00:02:36.333]As you navigate this academic year,
[00:02:38.458]approach each day with an open heart and mind.
[00:02:42.500]Embrace collaboration and celebrate diversity and allow your passion to guide you.
[00:02:48.541]I could not be more excited for you and the promise this experience
[00:02:53.125]at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln holds for your futures.
[00:02:57.458]Let us have an unforgettable first year
[00:03:00.583]here at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln.
[00:03:03.625]Good luck.
[00:03:04.583]And as always, Go Big Red!
