It’s nearly Welcome Week, and there will be endless events and people around you to show you what Mac is all about. But when you’re done with the faculty-themed chants and $10 breakfasts at Commons, consider the following about the university you’re about to spend the next few years at.
Take a stroll behind the David Braley Athletic Centre and look at the 6,000-seat Ron Joyce Stadium. Wander beyond Les Prince Hall and check out the Back Ten fields. Stop by the Burridge Gym and stand at centre court with the big maroon M in the middle.

Put yourself in this situation: you are a veteran varsity athlete who has spent the last few years dedicating yourself to your team and teammates. You balance your classes with workouts and practices and games every single day. You know you aren’t going to make it to the big leagues in your game, but you know that isn’t what you’re here for. You’re here to get better every day, push yourself to new goals and try to help your team in any way you can.
