Hey guys!

My name is Katie Renner, and I will be the 4th East RA in Harper for the

2013-2014 school year! I'm from Lunenburg, NS, a small town south of the city of Halifax. I'm in my second year at Mount Allison, and I'm enrolled in a Bachelor of Arts (majoring in Psychology and minoring in Biology).  My interests mainly revolve around sports; I've played soccer most of my life, and I also enjoy badminton and swimming. Other than that, I love hanging out with my friends and just having fun in general! Congratulations on your decision to move into the best residence on campus! There are so many great things about Harper that I know you won't regret it.

Harper Hall is known on campus for being one giant family, so if you're worried about making friends, don't be. We also have the awesome perk of being attached to meal hall, so if you're like me and enjoy being able to go to meals in your pajamas, Harper is for you.  Moving into Harper was the best decision of my life, and I am confident that you will feel the same!

A few tips for you guys: don't be afraid to talk to lots of different people during orientation week! Everyone is incredibly friendly, and chances are they want to make friends just like you. Also, keep your room clean! I learned the hard way that when you're late for your 8:30 and rushing around looking for things, it's so much easier to find them in a clean room than a messy one. Finally, get involved! You'll enjoy your time much more at Mount Allison if you're out doing fun things within the community.

If you guys have any questions, feel free to message me! I'm here to help :) I look forward to meeting all of you in the fall!

Harper Love,

Katie
