Welcome Back

Move-in weekend is always exciting here at WVU. Students leaving home for the first time, parents leaving their children for the first time, and the first chance for many to take responsibility for their own actions. A time when excitement and fear simultaneously courses through thoughts as rapidly as water flows through a river. What a wild ride! I say enjoy it.

Students enjoy your time exploring your new environment. Parents enjoy and celebrate the fact that you have raised children that are capable of succeeding at such an integrated university. Enjoy the the knowledge you will gain as new Mountaineers.

Growth from this knowledge will occur. The change in students from August til May is something I still marvel at even after three years here at the dorm. Have fun while growing and take all the oppurtunities that are offered to you.

Welcome and come say "hi".
