SPOP @ UCI > CSULA Orientation

It's been a year since my last SPOP hall. Every once in awhile I get a message from a spopper and we chop it up for awhile. I ask how they're doing, how their first year went, etc. As a staffer, we truly do impact the lives of the incoming freshman. Whether or not they continue their road at UCI or at another institution, there are those who have been influenced by the program and the people involved. This spopper in particular just reminded me of that...

"It (SPOP) was truly amazing! I learned so much, especially to just not be shy and get out there and meet different people. I used to be so quiet and shy, but ever since SPOP I changed for the better. Meeting all you staffers was amazing, staying up all night playing games and getting to know each other. Thank you guys for making it the best experience ever!"

Unfortunately this person won't be able to make it back to UCI their sophmore year due to the increase of tuition by 9.3%. She just went to CSULA orientation and as of now her Facebook status reads... "SPOP @UCI > CSULA orientation"

Zot Zot bitches...
