2. Did the Dean of your school give the following speech: “Look at the student on your right. Now look at the student on your left. You just made two new friends!” (Yes/No)
2a. Did the Dean then give you prescribed time to enter your new friends number in your notebook or cellular telephone. (Yes/No)
3. Did an elder from the Coast Salish nation welcome your class and remind you to be grateful for your family and friends who helped get you to school? (Yes/No)

5. Did you get a bag full of swag that included, among other things, an eco-friendly water bottle? (Yes/No)
If you answered yes to all the above questions, Congrats! You were at the first day of UVic law with me. If you answered No to any, I’m sorry. Your day was probably way less awesome than mine.
(Now I’m excited. This is starting to seem less scary and more fun…)
This is all amazing. And hopefully a sign you’ll have a great first year!
