During move-in, we asked Hokie families what they wanted to share with their class of 2029 Hokie. Here are their heartfelt responses!

I just want to say to Nora, go be you, just like I told you in kindergarten. Love you, baby. I'll miss her from abroad, but I know that she will do so well and make good, good friends here. You're smart, you're talented, you're brave, you're fearless. You've got all the makings of what are the all-time great Hokies. All the tools you need to be successful are right here on this campus. I hope you guys have the best time of your lives, and I'll miss you, Soph. You are a student first. It's the next chapter, so be sure to lock in on that. I'm very glad that he's here joining the student body at Virginia Tech. Very proud of him. Go Hokies. Go get him. We love you. Go, Elliot. Go. See you in four years. Study hard and rest up and enjoy the ride. Yay. Good luck. I love you. You've made it. Now you've got to do the hard part. Study hard, good grades, and enjoy it. Take care. Love you. Bye. You
