For this week's story of #HowWeMetAtRU, we have @hehir2thethrone & @fgrivers ✨⁣

"We met on move-in-day of our freshman year as random roommates. We lived on the top floor of our Residence Hall on Douglass Campus and neither of us anticipated how much of an impact that would have on the rest of time at Rutgers. It was there that we met some of our closest friends, watched movies on cramped laptop screens, ate way too much take out, and created a lifetime bond. ⁣
⁣
Each year at Rutgers led us to new opportunities, fresh faces, and different extracurriculars, but our one constant was each other. We lived together all four years. Being friends and roommates meant if she wanted to go to a football game or I wanted to go to a coffeehouse, we always had someone we could go with. We had different career goals, in education and dentistry, but we also both studied Women’s and Gender Studies and were Douglass Women, so we were lucky enough to have some classes together.⁣
⁣
Today, I look back and remember both big moments, like submitting the major declaration form, and small ones, like her lending me a pair of socks. And while we no longer get to see each other every day, we still both feel the ease of jumping back into conversations the same way we did while we were at Rutgers."⁣
