Ready for orientation???? by @opa.bellla

Just completed my last summer being an OPA. I want to thank both of the teams I was a part of and all of the friends I made along the way.

I wanted to leave a message to all of the students I have had. I will always be here for you if you need me please still reach out and say hi to me in the halls. I do have a bit of advice to give from my time in this role if you are willing to take it. It’s about finding your real friends. It may not always be easy making those friends that feel like family but here are a few things to look for: they defend you when no one is watching, they don’t assume they inquire, and last of all they make you feel like a kid again.

I know we always preach stepping out of your comfort zone and believe it or not I practice what I preach. That was this job for me. I encourage all of you to take the things you don’t love about yourself and turn them into things that make others feel safe. I’m here for you and JMU is too!!! Thank you @jmuorientation
