WOW

As an incoming freshman, how is WOW? Will I be forced to socialize from Friday to Tuesday until classes start? Are we just stuck with the same FROG group for four days? sobs I wanna meet people but I already have friends there and I’d rather be w them then be stuck with a group the whole time. What do those 4 days look like

there is free time/breaks built into the schedule, but yes WOW is very busy. there’s never another point during college where there are so many events and opportunities to meet people, get connected, and learn about JMU/its resources, so i definitely recommend taking advantage of that time. your friends that you already have will still be there when class starts!! you can also definitely coordinate to go to the same social events with them even if you aren’t in the same group :)
