Relationships

RELATIONSHIPS

Build relationships with your peers, faculty, staff, alumni, and community members

Campus may feel a bit overwhelming at first, but don’t worry! The key is to put yourself out there and be open to everyone you meet. Build relationships in small groups—in your classrooms, residence halls, study groups, and student organizations. Relationships will help you stay motivated and support your goals.

I was worried about finding opportunities across campus and about picking my classes for the coming semesters. I reached out to my academic advisor, and they were able to help me. We talked through my degree planner and picked out classes that would apply to my program. They also helped connect me with opportunities in research and internships. My relationship with my advisor has been one of the most impactful relationships I have cultivated at UNL.
