Description of an event: Freshmen's Reception

Last Thursday I went to the freshmen's reception. It took place at the university where all the second year students were were waiting for the first year students.

The event kicked off with the monologue of our classmate Javier Cáceres, who made everyone laugh with some funny facts about what it is like to be a teacher of English. The event continued with the conversation of students of different generations who shared their lived experiences through the years.

The most important part of the event was the meeting between the first year students with their "godmothers/godfathers". It was a beautiful moment, specially for the freshmen because it was a surprise for them. They seemed very happy to know that there is going to be an older student able to help them and answer their questions about the career.

The freshmen's reception should be done for many more years. It makes the relationship between students stronger and it takes a lot of team work to prepare a great reception, so hopefully it will become a tradition.
