New Student Programs has organized Quest for over 30 years. It is famous in Virginia as being one of the best orientation programs. This year, for some odd reason, the "higher ups" decided to change the name to New Student Orientation. Sounds kinda bland, doesn't it?
At first I, along with most of the rest of the campus, was really angry about the name change. It seems like a pointless change that is going to take away from the program. There are a lot of people who are still upset with the change.
I realized, though, that while the name may have changed, it's still the same program. The first session ended today and it went well. All the parents seemed to have really enjoyed the presentations and activities. The OAs are QAs (they just may not know it).
Sure, changing a Radford landmark program was dumb. But, as long as NSP continues to do an amazing job, it'll always be Quest to us.
