Remain patient and steadfast in pursing things that interest you most and remember that growth is not always linear; there is no harm in taking a step back to take another two forward.

"As newcomers, it's natural to feel a bit uncertain, but I'm here to reassure you, everything you need is within reach. Step out of your comfort zone, explore our campus, engage with clubs and organizations, and embrace new experiences... Remember, support is always available. Pace is brimming with opportunities, and it's your time to seize every single one."

"This year is going to have its ups and downs, but with the support from the Pace Community, you麻豆传媒檒l feel connected and grounded in no time. There is so much kindness on campus, from your peers, to your advisors, to your teachers. Make friends with the dining staff and security by saying a quick 'hi' when you pass through. Soon, they麻豆传媒檒l know you by name.麻豆传媒
