Help!   

Help, I need somebody,
Help, not just anybody,
Help, you know I need someone, help!

When I was younger, so much younger than today,
I never needed anybody's help in any way.
But now these days are gone, I'm not so self assured,
Now I find I've changed my mind and opened up 
the doors.

Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being round.
Help me, get my feet back on the ground,
Won't you please, please help me.

And now my life has changed in oh so many ways,
My independence seems to vanish in the haze.
But every now and then I feel so insecure,
I know that I just need you like I've never done before.

Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being round.
Help me, get my feet back on the ground,
Won't you please, please help me.

Help for New UNI Students

   It takes a while to learn the ropes at a new school. Its easy for those of us who have been on campus for a while to forget what it was like when we didn't know where to go or what procedures to follow! I've tried to pull together links to some useful campus resources to get you started.  Don't be afraid to ask for assistance - everyone was new to campus at some time!!
