My name is Jessica Wilcock, and I'm a freshman at Northeastern, originally from New Haven, Connecticut. I am in the architecture program and look forward to becoming involved with many new activities on campus. I am excited to share with you my first experiences here at NU and in the city of Boston.

Upcoming Move-In

So it's hard to believe I'm heading back to Boston in about a month. I just received my move-in information in the mail a couple days ago. And for the incoming students that are curious about how the move-in process works...you park in the lot assigned to you where there are plenty of people there to help you move everything. Almost everything can fit inside the wheeled carts that you check out to bring all your stuff from the car to your room. Once you get to your building you wait to get your key and information from your RA's. It all goes pretty smoothly; last year I was very impressed at how easy it was considering we are in a city and there's a lot of people and traffic constantly.

I'm also excited to be volunteering as a team leader for the Honors Outreach Project in September. I participated last year as part of the Honors Welcome Week activities. My group and I spent a day (from about 9 to 3) helping to rehabilitate a youth center in Jamaica Plains where we worked to clear out the backyard area and build a retaining wall from recycled brick. I look forward to find out what I will be working on this year!
