Advice for Freshmen: 

"Be patient. As a freshman, I expected to come to college and have everything figured out in an instant. New Maroon Camp helped me form amazing friendships, but it takes time for those relationships to grow. I still don’t know what my future plans will be, but I’m learning the art of patience and perseverance. Enjoy every single moment of these next four years, and don’t worry about the unknown. God has a beautiful plan for your life, and good things come to those who wait."

How has New Maroon Camp impacted you? : 

"I still have such a close relationship with one of my counselors from New Maroon Camp, and I met both my best friend and current roommate at camp. New Maroon Camp helped introduce me to people from all different backgrounds. A lot of people from my high school go to MSU, but New Maroon Camp allowed me to branch out and meet new people from all over the country. It gave me a confidence that I have carried through my freshman and sophomore year."
