College Freshers

entrances is now offering them the

opportunity to do new and

interesting activities, which is

exciting and challenging at the

same time.

The initial months at the campus

are very crucial in terms of settling

in and making a reputation for

yourself. This time should be

utilized to its full potential,

because let us face it, who doesn't

want to be called the coolest

person of the college?!

Here we bring some tips for you to

ease into the new college life:

1. Explore your Campus, Know

your Classrooms

Ask any of your elder siblings or

friends and they would surely tell

an excellent story about their

dramatic entry at their new

college. It would generally start

with them slowly trudging in the

campus with their earphones

plugged in with some cool song

playing in the background with all

Campus Watch August 2017

the SWAG that one can exhibit in

a moment. If you also have any

such dreams about walking into

your college, it’s time to wake up.

No! This is not what happens,

except in your dreams or in a

Bollywood flick.

More often than not, your first few

months at your college or

university would be spent

exploring the campus to find out

different facilities. Gone are the

school days when all the classes

would take place in your own

comfortable classroom. In college,

you would have different

classroom for different subjects

and sometime it would entail

changing rooms within the same

building or at times even jumping

a few building or department

blocks to reach to your next

classroom. And God forbid, if you

ever end up in a wrong classroom,

it would certainly be an

embarrassing moment which

might hurt you a bit right now, but

your college mates will help you

get over it soon.

Similarly, you would also have to

explore where the administration

department sits, because they

would provide you documentation.

While you are at it, try locating the

library and canteen as well. It may

sound awkward to mention library

and canteen in the same line, but

you will soon realize that most of

the time your breaks would be

spent at either of these.

2. Mind your dress code

Most of you who are planning to

move from school to college would

have imagined a changed world; a

world in which uniforms and dress

codes do not exist. Well, sorry to

burst your bubble again, that is

Campus Watch August 2017

simply not true.

While joining a college certainly

gets rid of wearing the uniform

every single day, there still is a

dress-code that one must adhere

to. Wearing the right kind of

clothes to the college can be the

key to getting noticed by everyone

but you surely don’t want undue

attention, especially during the

first few days or months in college.

Try to keep your clothing more

comfortable rather than flashy.

While you certainly don’t want to

be called ‘aunty ji’ on campus but

at the same time being the Nicki

Minaj or Lady Gaga of campus

would also not be on your c ollege

checklist.

For College Heartthrobs:

Groom yourself well. Start by

getting a good haircut and shave

that is recently in (Top Tip: Avoid

Shahid Kapoor’s Gabru style from

Udta Punjab). Pick clothes that are

casual and comfortable over the

flashy ones. Cool semi-formals or

stylish Polo T-shirts can up your

style game which should

compulsorily be accompanied with

confidence and a smile. Whatever

you wear, try to carry it with

confidence.

For Campus Queens: You guys

have a super-tough challenge

when it comes to building the right

wardrobe and picking the right

clothes for college. Follow your

heart and develop a good taste for

gracious clothing. Keeping comfort

at the core, you can choose

anything between a traditional

kurti, a casual dress or simple

jeans and top. Unless there is a

party, you don't need to dress too

blingy or loud. You would also

want to keep the makeup less

because the summer sun will melt

it down in minutes.

3. Find your BFFs

Take Dil Chahta Hai, RockOn or 3

Idiots; all of them have very noble

themes, with friendship being at

the core of their story. People you

meet in your college, friends you

make on campus remain with your

for the rest of your life. The new

age term to define such

relationships is BFF or Best

Friends Forever. And mostly,

people meet their BFFs during

their first few days or months at

college.

While some lucky folks among you

would have a few batchmates from

your school days as part of your
