It's a big day for more than 1,500 freshmen students at Central Washington University, who are arriving on campus to start their college educations. They're getting special help from some volunteers who are eager to help the newest Wildcats move in. As volunteers unloaded boxes upon boxes at the first-year residence dormitory, "nervous" and "excited" were two words that came to mind.

"I'm so nervous," said incoming Central Washington University freshman Nikole Chumley. "I'm still so nervous. My heart is pounding right now."
