Nervous about your first semester of college? So, look no further than The Daily’s Orientation Edition for all you need to be prepared for when you arrive in Ann Arbor.

➡️ "The cliché and the unsaid: Getting ready for a new chapter!" by Ankitha Donepudi

I knew absolutely nothing about the University of Michigan prior to setting foot on campus during move-in day. It may seem peculiar, considering our attendance at one of the nation’s finest public schools, but I did not hold as much attachment as those whose parents were alumni, fans of Michigan football or grew up here in Michigan. I didn’t know about the traditions and I didn’t really care about football. Coming from Texas, I didn’t know anyone at the University.

Despite the fact that the University of Michigan is pretty evenly split between those from Michigan and those not, sometimes it feels like an ocean — or a Great Lake — separates these two groups. I am not from Michigan, nor am I from the Midwest, so coming up here to study and live for eight months each year was a bit of a culture shock.

➡️ "What if Michigan isn’t right for me?" by Darrin Zhou

For many of you, acceptance was a cause for celebration. For many of you, this was your dream school, this was what you worked toward for the better part of your life, and you are happy, so happy, and I can see that you are happy, which makes it feel more taboo when I admit to myself that maybe I don’t quite want to go to the University of Michigan, because the acceptance letter from the University of Michigan was, in some respects, an inevitability, an afterthought, not something to really be proud of.
