It's almost here! One more month and you'll be a student at LU! If you're anything like me, you'll be checking, double-checking, and even triple-checking everything you needed to before you left for LU. You've completed Financial Check-In, completed your class schedule—with a little room for lunch after Convocation, of course. You've requested your Flames Pass so you can actually get your lunch, completed your health form, and pretty much done everything else you needed to do. But what do you do when you get there?
Unpack
Well, of course you should unpack, right? Especially with what feels like 10,000,000 people helping you, you'll get that part done quickly. That means you'll have much more time to spend with your parents and siblings before you have to say goodbye. Don't worry, you'll see them in a month during Fall Break.Live Healthy Liberty
NSSR 101 (or New Student Seminar) is one of the few required things that you have to do before attending classes. If you already went to Summer Orientation, you've already been through this and don't have to go again. However, this is actually a graduation requirement, believe it or not. It comes in two sessions. One of them, titled Live Healthy Liberty: Campus Health and Safety, used to have two separate meeting places. One was for the girls, and one was for the guys. Yep, it's the college version of that talk. They go over important things like Liberty's Title IX policies (aka their sexual assault policies), as well as less important items like their LUPD Safe Ride Program, which allows students who feel unsafe going somewhere alone to call LUPD at their non-emergency number to get a police officer to escort them.New Student Essentials
President's Kickoff
As you can see, you'll have a busy weekend when you get to LU. This is barely the tip of the iceberg as far as new student events for that weekend. Be sure to be checking your LU email for more info as you get closer and closer to your check-in date! (To sign in to your Liberty email, go here, type your Liberty username followed by @liberty.edu, and, when redirected, sign in using your Liberty username and password.) Liberty will be emailing and mailing you crucial information in the coming weeks, including your check-in date and time, as well as a physical copy of the Welcome to Liberty booklet. I can't wait to meet you! Maybe we can even catch some Pokémon together!
