 “As much as I wanted to sleep in on my last weekend here on campus before class began, I was happy I went to the meeetings. I wouldn’t have seen so many familiar faces in my classes if it weren’t for my Greeter group. It was so amusing watching all the Greeters that I actually want to be one now.” –Amanda Krema
