Move-in at UGA is usually a wild rush, but this year’s early arrivals—mostly freshmen girls prepping for sorority recruitment—found a surprisingly peaceful scene. Cool weather, open parking, and helpful resident assistants made the process feel welcoming and easy. For many, like out-of-state student Grace Donovan and Georgia native Mackenzie Brunner, this marks a huge life change: new friends, new independence, and big dreams. Parents felt the mix of pride and nerves too, but mostly just excitement for what’s ahead. Anyone else remember their own move-in day chaos? What made it memorable for you? #Education #College #UGA
