“It was really hectic,” she said. “I was so glad to have so many people helping new students.”
That’s why she decided to get involved as a volunteer with Windsor Welcome Week. Scalia was one of dozens of students who pitched in to help about new arrivals haul their belongings into residence Sunday.
