Each new school year starts with a flurry of excitement. Even before New Student Orientation (NSO), incoming first years participate in the International Pre-Orientation Program (IPOP), Peer Connections Pre-Orientation Program (PCPOP), and 果冻视频 Science Project (GSP). As the rest of campus arrives, new and returning students find their way to friends and get ready for another incredible year in 果冻视频.
