Tip #2

Don’t be scared to reach out to people or clubs that you want to be a part of because you never know where you will meet your best friends!

Studying is really important throughout your college career but especially your freshmen year. I’ve met so many people who are struggling because they did not study their freshmen year.

TIP #4

Don’t say you’ll do it later, because you won’t. 

 

- Mark, Senior

Know your morals and who you (as a Christ-follower). Have standards for yourself & friends.

A Thurday Night Journey Group

At Freshmen Leadership Team, we hangout, have a ton of fun, play games, live life together, and learn what it means to be a leader in Cru, but most importantly, we get to know Jesus as we plunge into the Gospel together. If you are a freshmen, we hope to see you there.
