Message to Students:
College is a great time to dig in, get involved, make a difference, and have fun. Get everything you can out of your time at ODU. "Wherever you are, be there -- Develop a unique focus on the current moment and draw from it all of the substance, wealth of experience, and emotions that it has to offer. Capture each moment so that it becomes a new part of what you are and of what you are in the process of becoming. Life is not something we do; it is something we experience. And until we learn to be there, we will never master the art of living well." - Jim Rohn

Message to Students:
Winston Churchill once said, "You make a living by what you get.  You make a life by what you give."  ODU offers you many opportunities to get involved and to make a difference. Take advantage of whatever you can.  If you are one of the many students who hasn't decided on a path or passion, use the opportunities provided to you to explore your interests.  If you have a passion, make it real, and share it with others by volunteering and being involved.  College is your time to explore, use it wisely by engaging in the community around you.
