Samantha Barnwell from Oceanport, center, participates in the First-Year Overnight Orientation Program at Monmouth University, West Long Branch. The two-day program brings first-year students to campus in July. Students do various team-building activities, have an individual advising appointment with a first-year adviser, learn about campus resources and begin exploring the differences between high school and college through student-created skits and a mock class experience with a full-time faculty member.
