Welcome back Cougs! I am sure most of us have moved into the dorms or apartments by now and are looking for things to do before classes start.
I have just the thing for everybody, both on campus and off, both before and after classes start (if you are looking for more things to do after class next week).
I hope this helps, and enjoy!
