Uh oh! How do I get rid of my NSOP relationship? You’ve come to the right place.

Welcome back to campus, Barnumbians! And welcome TO campus to the Class of 2026! We hope that, by now, you’ve settled into your room, met your roommates, and figured out how to use your room key.

“I don’t know… I think I’ve become more of an optimist since coming here…”

Send us your anecdotes from NSOP, and we’ll turn them into masterpieces.
