What is your most memorable experience in PASS?

One of my most memorable PASS experiences was hosting a prospective transfer student for Transfer SHADOW Night. As he asked me his questions about the transfer process, it made me realize that I used to be in his shoes once and I found it interesting to note how far along I've progressed since my community college days. It felt nice knowing that I had been an available resource for him, and that I was able to provide him some help with a few of his concerns.
