My name is Sarah Drobnock, and I am from Pennsylvania. I am a freshman here at UD, and I'm loving it! My major is Hotel, Restaurant, and Institutional Management. In the future I would like to work for a cruise line, or a resort. I enjoy to dance, row, make new friends, eat, and watch movies. Please don't hesitate to ask me any questions, and hopefully I will see many of you around campus next year. Follow my blog to see my freshman experience as a Blue Hen!
Feels good to be a kid again…
This week UD student athletes and local elementary school students participated in none other than Field Day! We arrived at the field and were slit up into teams, I was team NIke Blue, and anxiously awaited their arrival! We participated in multiple events including: dizzy bat, trivia, egg & spoon, sponge race, basketball, an obstacle course and tug of war. Team Nike Blue even came up with chants to show our spirit! This event was so much fun, and a fantastic way to get away from studying for finals for a bit. It was nice to be a carefree kid again, I definitely plan on participating again next year!
Others are boat pictures and then the team! Enjoy!
It’s time for study mode.
Why I chose UD…
Registration and Room Assignments
Got all of the classes and teachers that I wanted! So excited for next semester as a Sophomore!
I also found out housing assignments for next fall, and I am pleased to say that I will be rooming with my best friend in a hallway full of rowers next year!!!

Hey! I'm going to be a freshman at UD next year, majoring in HRIM!! Have any tips for next year? Is there anything that you wish you could have told yourself before you went to UD?
I absolutely love UD and the HRIM department is fantastic!! The teachers are so knowledgeable and great at what they do!
My tip for you would be to just make the best of your time here, because I cannot believe my first year is almost over!!! Within the first week of school there is a student activities night, so you can go and check out all of the clubs at UD. There are tons that are hospitality specific, and those are really great learning experiences!
There’s nothing that I really would have told myself before coming here, besides make lots of friends, get involved, oh and get good grades :)
At New Student Orientation, you will meet your adviser and pick classes right then and there!! So you don’t necessarily have to be prepared to do that, because they will give you a list of options. Also at NSO, they will tell you you need a professional business suit, which is awesome because all of the HRIM kids look spiffy when they get dressed up. Please let me know if you have any more questions, or if this did not really answer yours! Hope to see you on campus next year, go blue hens!!!
Fall 2012 classes, already?!
Tomorrow morning I pick my classes for the Fall! It’s scary to think that my first year of college is almost over, but I’m really looking forward to next year! I’ll be rooming with my best friend on north campus, hopefully!! Housing assignments come out on Thursday, fingers crossed! If my schedule works out as planned, I will be taking Psychology, Accounting, Spanish, Plant Science, and Executive Presentations. I’m so excited!!

Wow, three posts in one day! I’m on a roll! =) I was asked a fantastic question by one of my followers, and I felt as though it is a question a lot of incoming freshman have-so I thought I’d share:
themusicisdying asked: Would it be possible to study abroad as a freshman?!?! I would really…
