As part of our countdown to Orientation we will be introducing a member of the 2026 Orientation Staff each day on instagram! They will be sharing how they found community when they first got to Lehigh, the best advice they received as a first-year student that helped them to be successful, and resources/offices that were helpful throughout their transition to Lehigh.
