Advice to the 2014’ers: What do you wish you had known?

What do you wish you had known as you were starting your first semester at Wesleyan?  What do you wish you had done differently?  What changes have you made?   What did you do to make your first semester (and second, for that matter) a successful one?  In other words, what advice can you give the incoming members of the Class of 2014 as they anticipate their first semester at Wesleyan?  With your first year of college nearly done, you are uniquely qualified to suggest the steps that the new ‘14’ers should take for a successful semester, so let’s hear ’em!  

Send your suggestions and advice–brief or lengthy–to me at lsbrown@wesleyan.edu.  Woo hoo!
