Bey you! Welcome to the Bonois Piogiam! Anu get exciteu foi one of the best
expeiiences of youi fieshman yeai - Bonois 1uu! The stait of youi college
expeiience is guaianteeu to be extiaoiuinaiy, but I'm going to make it tiuly
unpaialleleu as youi Bonois 1uu TA! Ny name is Nancy anu I'm a sophomoie
Washington NASA Space uiant Scholai majoiing in Physics anu Astionomy. Since I
was boin anu iaiseu in Seattle anu both of my paients aie Buskies, the 0niveisity of
Washington has always been in my bloou. Aftei giauuating fiom my extiemely
small, piivate high school, I came to 0W uuiing summei quaitei as pait of the
Summei 0nueigiauuate Reseaich Piogiam to woik on Nais uata with the Eaith &
Space Sciences Bept. Even thiough these astionomical changes, I've giown to finu
my own niche in the huge 0W community thiough smallei gioups like my soioiity,
the 0W Women's Choii, anu, of couise, the Bonois Piogiam!

0nce I got past the majoi cultuie shocks of college, I've manageu to finu my place
acauemically anu socially. By being involveu with a huge vaiiety of gioups, I've
gaineu a lot of meaningful expeiiences that I can't wait to shaie with you! But the
most impoitant giowth you'll finu is thiough youi own expeiiences - even though
I'll auvise you against it, you'll have to leain foi youiself N0T to put off youi
WebAssign homewoik until 11:uu PN when it's uue at 11:Su PN. Anyways, I'm veiy
exciteu to leain moie about you anu heai youi insight into the tiue lives of 0W
fieshmen!

Finally, best of all, I piomise to ALWAYS gieet you with a smile anu wave whenevei I
bump into you (hopefully not liteially) aiounu campus. As cheesy as it sounus, one
of my goals is to ensuie that you will always have a fiienuly face aiounu to make oui
huge univeisity seem a little bit smallei.
