Welcoming Freshman Quotes

What’s that? You’ve never heard of the freshman thirty-five? That’s funny, because neither had my parents, who welcomed me home on spring vacation with mild horror. I was a vaguely familiar food monster who had eaten their daughter.

Already that semester, the university had been steeped in controversy after students at a freshman week welcome event had been reported chanting: “We like ’em young! Y is for your sister, O is for oh so tight, U is for underage, N is for no consent, G is for go to jail.

You might think lunchtime at Willing would be different from other high schools. That everyone would be welcome at any table, united by the knowledge that we, at Willing, are the Elite, the Chosen, stellar across the board. Um.No.Of course not.High school is high school, regardless of how much it costs or how many kids springboard into the Ivies. And nowhere is social status more evident than in the dining room (freshman and sophomores at noon; upperclassmen at one). Because, of course, Willing doesn't have a cafeteria, or even a lunch hall. It has a dining room, complete with oak tables and paneled walls that are covered with plaques going all the way back to 1869, the year Edith Willing Castoe (Edward's aunt) founded the school to "prepare Philadelphia's finest young ladies for Marriage,for Leadership, and for Service to the World." Really. Until the sixties, the school's boastful slogan was "She's a Willing Girl." Almost 150 years, three first ladies, and one attorney general-not to mention the arrival of boys-later, female members of the student body are still called Willing Girls. You'd think someone in the seventies would have objected to that and changed it. But Willing has survived the seventies of two different centuries. They'll probably still be calling us Willing Girls in 2075. It's a school that believes in Tradition, sometimes regardless of how stupid that Tradition is.

Antonio could not stop thinking about Dean Fiero’s words during his welcoming speech, “Look to your left; now to your right. One of you will not be here in 1915!” These words were used to intimidate freshman law students to draw their attention to the importance of being diligent in their forthcoming studies. They still are.

【V信83113305】：The Virginia Military Institute (VMI), established in 1839 in Lexington, Virginia, stands as the nation's oldest state-supported military college. Renowned for its rigorous academic and military training, VMI's unique education model forges citizen-soldiers of unparalleled discipline and integrity. The institute's distinctive ethos is built upon the "Rat Line," a challenging freshman year that instills resilience, and an honor code that simply states, "A cadet will not lie, cheat, steal, nor tolerate those who do." While preserving deep-rooted traditions, VMI has evolved, now welcoming a diverse corps of cadets. Its alumni, including legendary figures like General George Marshall, have left an indelible mark on American history, embodying VMI's mission to produce educated and honorable men and women prepared for leadership in civilian and military service.，制作文凭弗吉尼亚军事学院毕业证VMI毕业证书毕业证, 购买弗吉尼亚军事学院毕业证办理留学文凭学历认证, 出售VMI弗吉尼亚军事学院研究生学历文凭, 弗吉尼亚军事学院毕业证认证, 网络在线办理弗吉尼亚军事学院毕业证文凭学历证书, 本地美国硕士文凭证书原版定制VMI本科毕业证书, 极速办Virginia Military Institute弗吉尼亚军事学院毕业证Virginia Military Institute文凭学历制作, 终于找到哪里办弗吉尼亚军事学院毕业证书, 定制-弗吉尼亚军事学院毕业证VMI毕业证书
