Curated by Rina Weng
“Lived off campus, spent less time in Bartle, maintained lasting friendships better.” - Corinna of BUJA & Pre-Med Association (Biology) “I wish I could have gotten involved with more clubs or organizations around campus. It seems fun to be involved in so many things and being part of a larger organization, but I never felt like I had sufficient time to get involved and put my all into any clubs.” - Thamid (Chemistry) “I wish I could have experience variety of cultural activities, besides the ones I was familiar with. It's probably just my prejudice but I felt people from same ethnic background tends to stay within their groups. I think it would have been really fun if I could have been part of many different groups of different ethnicity. Other than that, being involved in research bit earlier, since I started my first research in my late junior year. Same for the seminars, which are opened for all undergraduates as well, which I was kind of intimidated to attend in freshman and sophomore years.” -Heeseong Cho (Biology) “I wish I could have written down more of my thoughts and experiences. Since I started journaling recently, I realize there are a lot of good memories and experiences that I hardly remember because I didn’t write them down. “Live in the moment” is fake news, we can live the moment and also remember it for your future self through pictures and journals.” - Tao Yang of SASE & AO (Mechanical Engineering) “GREEK LIFE!”

Also, go to Tom’s with friends!” -Alison of Binghamton Circus Acts Association (CS & Psych) “Hang out more with friends!!” -Anonymous “I wish I joined more recreational clubs where I can explore my hobbies.” - Justin (Psych/Pre-Physical Therapy) “Eat pizza logs one last time, go to the Nature Preserve.” - Brianna of Protect Our Breasts (Econ/Graphic Design Minor) “Go to nature preserve and sit on that bench next to the pond.” -Mengshu of IC & AO (History & AAAS)
