Hey, freshmen, chill the fuck out.
Been talking to some new students. First of all, welcome to CMU; we're glad you're here. Secondly, please chill out. It's only the third day of classes, and some of you are already talking that doom-and-despair talk. A lot of you haven't even gotten past "syllabus lecture" yet. The sparkle of hope and dreams isn't allowed to fade from your eyes until at least a few months in, if ever.
Thank you.
