[music] Stanford University. Move-in day is probably one of the most
exciting days of the year on campus. When all of the freshmen show up and
they're nervous and excited and their parents are kind of freaking out, too.
And so, it's really fun just getting them all into their dorms and showing them what
Stanford is all about. All of the dorm staff and move-in day
volunteers and well as orientation volunteers kind of overwhelm them with
Stanford spirit. I think a lot of people are really
surprised by their big welcome when they walk up to the front desk and everyone
already knows their names. I'm super excited for all the new freshman
coming in. It's really exciting experience and I'm
glad that they get to experience what I've experienced last year.
It's really exciting just to see how welcome they feel.
They were definitely very enthousiastic and helpful.
So, on move-in day, President Hennessy comes around to each dorm and shakes hands
with the different freshmen. I think it's really great that the
freshmen are actually getting an introduction from the President of their
university on their first day. The parents and their students bring in a
lot of their luggage. And sometimes, it's like stacked up to
some of the, The height of some of these palmtrees.
It's hard not to be excited when your kid goes to college and especially a school
like Stanford. So,
Thrilled. [LAUGH] A little sad, of course.
We'll miss him. Don't get me started. [LAUGH] We miss him already.
But it's going to be such a wonderful experience, and Stanford has been so
welcoming. Enjoy yourself, make the most of college.
Have fun. I can do that.
Make some great friends. And I'm sure you will.
