Over 600 people, including students and their families, attended to meet the division chairs and the faculty. During the course of the evening, many faculty were on hand to chat with the new students, offering them valuable advice on their college career.<\/p>\n<p>The new students connected not only with their new professors, but also with their fellow classmates. Already some of them have forged new friendships with the people they will be working directly with for the next four years, and in some cases, the rest of their lives.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, we had the step and repeat set up for those who wanted to take photos, and we picked the five best ones to receive Dodge College swag bags.<\/p>\n<p>Everyone had a wonderful time, and we at Dodge College look forward to seeing the wonderful things they all come up with.<\/p>\n<p>Here are a few photos from the evening!<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-19905 gallery-columns-3
