"As a commuter student, something I would advise others in this place about is to not let long commute times intimidate you from having fun on campus and enjoying your time there. I feel like it's easy to only focus on the academic aspect of college and forget to enjoy and have fun, but doing something relaxing can help to avoid burnout and is healthy for you! For example, I found myself going to the Commuter & Transfer Commons in the HUB every week. There are tables and chairs you can sit at to do homework or hangout with friends."
