In this post, I discuss my first week of college as a matriculated student. I describe my social and academic life and how I navigated through it!

Welcome to the blog! I'm a member of the class of 2027, and this is my first post—a window into my life at Dartmouth after a first week of classes!

Get to know me and my first summer college experience through FYSEP!
