Hear from the Orientation Staff - Sara Kelm

Hey folks! I'm Sara Kelm, and I'm on the Orientation committee this
year. I'm a Writing/Literature major and Psychology minor from Calgary
(yes, Canada) who has one semester left before graduation and little
idea of what to do next. Being a student of literature, I love to read
and write non-fiction essays. Here are some other things I love: fruit,
So You Think You Can Dance, blogs, Tim-Tams, Switchfoot, documentaries,
pigs, and Papua New Guinea (where I spent three weeks this summer).
I've lived at Fox for the last three years of my life full-time, and I
truly call it home. One of my favorite memories from freshman
Orientation weekend was dancing with my roommate and two guy friends
during the Hoedown. The square dance caller was going way too fast and
we were too far away to hear him, so we just started to make up our own
square dance. Pretty soon, we were laughing so hard we could barely
breathe. Moments like that continued to happen all throughout my
freshman year, moments that were unexpected, hilarious, and ridiculously
fun. Expect to be stretched and challenged during your first year at
Fox, but also expect some amazing and unpredictable moments that you'll
never forget. I think Fox is great, and I hope you will too! Please
find me on Facebook (I'm on there all the time), and feel free to ask
any questions that you think of as you prepare for this fall (i.e. how
big are the dorm rooms, how's the food, should I bring my kayak?). Stay
awesome, folks!
