“This is the beginning. The moment you step foot on campus you’re rooted. You’ll plant your seeds and build your foundation and watch your life grow. Your roots will link and blend and weave together. You’ll create connections. Reach out to as many people as you can. You may be surprised by how many will reach back. Nurture relationships that help you grow. Chase what makes you truly happy and dream big because this is your chance. As you’re walking the concrete path from one brick building to another, passing through the trees, don’t be afraid to leave your mark. Leave a trail, a path, a memory, and plant your roots in a community that wants you to succeed. These buildings, this place, these people, will be your core, your family and your roots.” Sarah Hatten, Griffon Alum ’12
