UConn proves popular with the GHS crowd

Apparently cardinals are flying up to Husky country in droves.

UConn is the most popular four-year institution with GHS seniors by the number of students planning to attend in the fall, according to Colin Gustafson’s article in Sunday’s paper. Check it out at http://bit.ly/bRWbfF.

In the article, one member of the Class of 2010 said something that I could relate to as a GHS alum and UConn student:

“Hayashida and Christian are two of my good friends,” Sale said. “I might not see them all the time at a school that’s so large. But it’s just reassuring to know that I have two good friends going through the same experiences as me.”

For the record, I believe five GHS grads resided in my dorm last year, including myself. When Undergraduate Student Government held their massive ice cream social for all the freshman, I remember the comforting feeling of seeing a few good friends in a crowd of new and unfamiliar people. For all those GHS grads out there who have gone from GHS to UConn, what was your experience in your high school to college transition? Feel free to comment…
