    Dave Blanks from University Communications hosts an orientation edition of Dave by the Bell, where he crashes an ice cream party on Sanford Mall to interview incoming students and their parents about their expectations for the first month of college. Excitement about meeting new people, participating in clubs and sports, and experiencing independence abound! TRANSCRIPT Dave Hey folks, how's it going? I'm Dave Blanks from University Communications back with another Dave by the Bell. This is an orientation edition of Dave by the Bell. First day of fall semester is about a month away. August 19th. Students and their families have been hanging out on campus. They got in yesterday and they spent the night in some residence halls, checking things out. So we're going to talk to them a little bit about their experience and also what they're looking forward to, what they're expecting for their first month of their collegiate career. And also hopefully talk to the parents about what they think their first month with their student in school will be like. So that's the plan. Let's do it. Hey, I know that person. That's Sarah Garrow. Hey, Sarah Garrow. How's it going? Sarah It's going so well. We've got ice cream, we've got Inflatable Block A's out here on Sanford Mall, rain free, just enjoying the sun. Got a couple sessions in August, so two in Hickory, August 9th and 14th. And then our final Boone main campus session on Monday, August 12th. Dave Is there going to be ice cream again for that one? Sarah Always. It's not orientation season without ice cream. Dave I feel the same way. Thanks Sarah. I really appreciate it. Yeah, thanks for being here. I'm going to talk to some people. Trey I'm Trey Craven. So once I get my schedule together, which is probably going to be the first week, trying to get that situated, that first month is just going to be getting used to my schedule and getting used to walking around and figuring out when I need to leave my dorm. Just getting used to meeting new people because where I'm from, everyone knows me. I know everyone. It was a very small area outside of Wilmington's where I'm really from. Dave Well represent, where is it? Trey Leland, North Carolina. Dave Leland, shout out. Alright, cool. Hey, did you go to orientation? Katie I did. Dave Okay. Are you Katie Cooper? Katie Yes, I am. Katie Cooper. Dave Oh hey. How's it going? I don't know how I knew that. Maybe your name tag. So how did orientation go? Katie It was great. I am five hours away, so I was really scared because I only know one person coming here. I did the overnight orientation and last night was a lot of fun. It was also, I'm happy I got to see the dorms because I didn't get to go to open house. So it's like, okay, this is my first experience seeing the dorms. Yeah. But it was a lot of fun doing that and I'm happy I was able to meet people. So now I know. Okay. I have some people I'll know when I come here and I won't be totally alone. Dave Good. So what do you foresee your first month being like? Katie The one thing I'm trying to avoid is feeling like I'm stuck in my dorm. I really don't want to feel like I'm stuck. I want to go to the library, things like that. I am looking forward to just kind of being on my own for a little bit and seeing how that works. Dave You mean away from the fam? Katie Yeah, Michael Right. Yeah. I'm Michael Caro, and this is my son Roman. Dave Roman. What's up man? Roman How you doing? Dave Hey, I'm good. We'll talk to you first and then I want to talk to your dad. So Roman, how was orientation? Roman Orientation was fun. So I did the overnight orientation. When you got there, you had a schedule and out at the courtyard there was all these games and stuff. And all of the sophomores and juniors, they were trying to kind of forcing people to socialize, which is good Dave Because some people need urging. Roman Yeah, I needed urging. It's like once you have one or two friends it's so much easier. Dave So did you know anybody coming here to App? Roman No, I'm actually from Pensacola, Florida. Dave Oh Sweet. Good to have you here. What is it you're looking forward to? Roman I'm looking forward to settling in. I'm looking forward to the scenery that App State has. I'm very much an outdoorsy person and I love the mountains more than anything really. But... Dave Even though you grew up in Pensacola, Roman Even though I grew up in Pensacola, and if you know anything about Pensacola, it's the most flat place, Dave Not too mountainous. Roman I really just came to App State for a big change. Dave Nice! Well, I'm sure your first month is going to go smooth, dad. I hope so. Michael, what do you foresee your first month of Roman being in school like? Michael Well, we'll be officially empty nesters, so I'm pretty excited about ...
