- Orientation (because this is probably when you first fell in love with App – the campus, the people, everything – and had a taste of what it would be like to be on your own).
- Freshman dorm room (because you have to live there for a year so might as well make it look homey…AND it will probably never look the same after taking that picture so you better show it off).

- Welcome weekend (because there’s no other experience like it…brand new, lost, curious as ever, and no classes to worry about yet).
- Tailgating at Duck Pond Field decked out in black and gold (because it’s a tradition, duh…and what Mountaineer doesn’t want to show their pride?)
- You and Yosef (what better way to show off your school spirit?)

- Sledding down suicide hill (because your winter in Boone isn’t complete until you do).

- You and the Chancellor (because she’s pretty much royalty).
- You lounging in your eno (because you know it’s the best and only way to “hang” out).

- You and your friends huddled together in the student section at the stadium [“The Rock”] for all of the football games from first to last even if you never stayed the whole time (same enthusiasm, more layers of clothes).

- Sanford mall in the spring (because it’s hoppin’ and it just makes you happy).
- You and your freshman roommate (because even if you two weren’t the closest, how could you forget?!)
- Hiking at Rough Ridge or Blue Ridge Parkway or wherever else (because you’re pretty much on top of the world).

- You representing your sorority or fraternity if you’re in Greek life or one of the unique clubs you’re a part of (because App is one of a kind).

- You and your friends dressed like eskimos in matching duck boots on one of those rare snow days.

- Your first slackline attempt (because even if you failed, you can’t say you didn’t try).

- Your first frat party (because most likely it was an unforgettable experience).
- The crazy preacher (because c’mon, he’s infamous).
- #thirstythursday at Char, Parthenon, Klondike, Galileo’s (the list goes on).
- Camping (because we do live in the mountains after all…)
- Snowboarding/skiing (because how much more convenient can it get?)

- The Graffiti Tunnels (because they’re cool and why hide our college’s artistic side?)

- You at one of those Legends concerts (what can we say…our college is musical too).
- FOOD (because there’s nothing else like Boone’s local restaurants…Our Daily Bread, Boone Bagelry, Appalachia Cookie Co just to name a few).

- Coffee/latte art (yes, this deserves to be separate).

- You and the adorable dogs on campus (because how can you resist?!)
- All of your amazing study abroad experiences (if you had that chance).

- Our mountainous campus in any season, really (because it can’t get any more beautiful than Appalachian State, our second home).
