Still in summer mode? 🌊☀️ Fall Quarter is almost here! Taking a few small steps now—like meeting with your academic advisor, checking your schedule, and planning ahead—can help reduce stress before classes begin. 💙📚 #DUPioneers #BackToSchool

Graphic featuring a photo of students walking on the University of Denver campus. In the foreground, a Hispanic male college student wearing sunglasses, colorful swim trunks, flip-flops, a yellow inflatable float around his waist, and holding a beach ball shrugs with a confused expression, as if he just came from the beach. A large crimson speech bubble reads, "DON'T LET FALL QUARTER CATCH YOU BY SURPRISE!" The University of Denver logo appears in the bottom left corner. The image humorously encourages students to shift from summer mode and begin preparing for the upcoming fall quarter.
