[It was heart wrenching b/c I did not want to stay in state for schl but such is life...] Nevertheless, I learned my lesson and will be transferring to Vandy this fall=]] At my current schl, I didn't get involved as much because I knew in my heart that I was going to transfer.. somewhere.. one way or another. My ultimate goal is to be a Top Senior in 3 yrs or so and that means I need to get tip top grades && be involved tremendously. I already have a list of activities I want to do BUT I need advisers for the organizations i want to start. So finally, my question is: should I start looking for and emailing teachers now [at my new schl] even though I don't know them && seeing that it is summer time or should I wait til schl starts??? I want to be on top of things.
Thank you mucho=]]]

That's better.
I don't think this has anything to do with Greekdom, correct?
Just making sure before I swerve onto AKA Avenue.
ETA: I have some buddies who attended both Valdosta State University and Vanderbilt. You are trying to start your OWN organizations? In that case, I would contact the student organizations office and see what their protocol and procedures are and what the norm is in contacting professors. Emailing the professors before the first day of class may or may not be frowned upon unless the professors are known supporters of a particular cause or group. Other than that, keep in mind that one of the most annoying things can be students emailing you before the semester has begun, and before you have met the student, about something that is not directly related to the course (and technically not related to academics at all).
