Sara-Ann Logan. I was class of 2003 and then 2005, Sid Richardson College Orientation Week was probably the rice tradition that was the most me like meaningful to me. I think it's interesting to um before the start of school, have mentors that you come together with

00:00:26.959 - 00:00:43.939

and do activities that maybe pushed you outside of your boundaries a little bit before you start the rigor of school. Um I think learning to getting to know um about Houston and, and the community that you're gonna be involved in um was really critical for those

00:00:43.950 - 00:00:59.560

people who were not from Houston. And I think for those who are of us who were native from Houston, it was really a good way to kind of introduce our new friends to our favorite haunt. So I thought um having the mentors um that were from

00:00:59.759 - 00:01:19.029

higher grades were also really was a really good way to, for us to ask all of the questions that we wanted to ask and have all of that done outside of the stress of college and the start of college. What traditions or advice would I most

00:01:19.040 - 00:01:38.739

like to share to the next generation of owls I think have fun. It's and make friends. Um, because this is gonna be the, these are gonna be your lifelong friends. I'm here on a trip, a girls trip for my 20th reunion. Um And these are the

00:01:38.750 - 00:01:49.279

girls who see you through. These are the people that see you through the next phases of your life. So have fun and make lots and lots of friends.
