Your First Day of Classes
What should you bring the first day of class?
We suggest you bring your study list, textbooks, a pen, and a notebook
that will fit in a three ring binder or a three ring binder itself.
What happens on the first day of class?
The first day of class serves as an introduction to the
course. You will meet your instructor, receive your syllabus (a summary
or outline of the course), and learn more about the content and requirements
of the class. You will have an opportunity to ask questions. You may
be asked to introduce yourself. Some instructors "jump right in" with
a lecture and/or activities. It is very important that you
attend class on the first day (and on all other days, for that matter)!
What if I get lost?
Many students find it helpful to visit our campus before the first day
of class to find the rooms in which the classes will be held. Campus
floor plans, posted on the wall at the end of each hallway, can help
you locate the specific classrooms.
If you happen to get lost on the first day of class, don't hesitate to
stop by any nearby office to ask for assistance!
