SMU FRESHMEN ORIENTATION
ABOUT FRESHMEN ORIENTATION
Freshmen Orientation (FO) is SMU’s largest freshmen event, where freshmen get formally inducted into SMU. FO serves as a great opportunity for freshmen to mingle with peers from different schools and undergo a wide range of activities hosted by the FO Organising Committee.
FRESHMEN ORIENTATION 2024 - SMUTOPIA
The theme for this year’s Freshmen Orientation is ‘SMUtopia’. SMUtopia exists as a parallel world of SMU set within a nature-themed virtual game environment. In this world, nature and creatures are guarded by the Guardian Spirits — 4 important creatures who are the pinnacle of SMUtopia. The creatures live around the World Tree, a tree that protects all life in SMUtopia. However, a mysterious poison has infected the World Tree, which is slowly killing the plants in SMUtopia. To revive the World Tree and restore SMUtopia to its previously peaceful and balanced state, the Guardian Spirits have enlisted your help to embark on quests tied to SMU’s CIRCLE values to obtain potions to cure the World Tree and save SMUtopia.
