Welcome to Ames!

There is nothing like Ames in the Fall. New faces, tons of activity, lots of new people falling in love with the town you enjoy, football, ISU volleyball, and limitless opportunities.

To all those new in town I want to be one of many who say WELCOME!

A few tips to help you survive:
1. Don't worry about not having A/C- those with it use it for the next two weeks and then are the ones paying extra for a room that's too cold.
2. Don't go home- it's best to wait at least 3 weeks before your first return trip home. Meet new people, make new friends, and enjoy Ames.
3. Drive around Ames. This town has tons to offer for food, entertainment, recreation, and more. Find these places- Peterson Pits, Ada Hayden Park, Ames' new swimming pool, Moore Memorial Park, and Dog Town University (for cheap ISU apparel). Lastly, though the food isn't the best in town the view is, fall in love with ISU by looking at it from the best view in town at Legends.
4. Don't pay for football tickets in case the season turns for the worst, join TSC for stadium cleanup and get in for FREE! Plus you meet great people and we feed you!
5. Don't miss our kickoffs- all on Central Campus.
