Advice to St. Ambrose freshmen: Sit
in the hallway and talk to as many people as possible, go to
the cafeteria at 10 a.m. in the morning and stay there until
6 p.m. at night - you will be amazed at the people you meet.
Do not get ready for class - there's no point, in fact, don't
get ready to go to the bars, just go in jeans and a t-shirt
with your hair up. People's true colors do show but give
everyone a chance. Go to Italy with Fr. Bud.
