Advice to St. Ambrose freshmen:
 Have fun...Take in all of the little things that seem insignificant. Say hello to as many people as possible. Join a club/organization and try to stick with it. Don't get pissed off at the lunch people, they're trying their best to get you the food...they're people too. Get to know as many people as possible. Talk to your teachers, get to know them...they really are there to help you. Cheer for the athletic teams...all of them...they need the support. Don't get pissed at the RA's/CA's for doing their job, accept it and move on. Use the resources that the campus has for you; it'll save you $$$. Most of all, and it is the most important, HAVE FUN.
