With Dorian\u2019s younger sister, Madison, they\u2019d already unloaded and broken down a pile of boxes by about 10:30 a.m. They planned to stick around till afternoon, but they had no doubt their son was ready to take this step on his own.<\/p>\n<p>Dorian comes to UMW with two years of college credit already, having completed a community college associate degree via a dual enrollment at his high school. He\u2019s excited about taking chemistry this fall. He played guard on his high school\u2019s state championship basketball team, and he plans to play at Mary Washington too.<\/p>\n<p>His parents know they\u2019ll come to plenty of his games. So no, it\u2019s not really goodbye.<\/p>\n<p>Back at Randolph Hall, it wasn\u2019t really goodbye for first-year student Alex Pineda-Bautista, younger sibling Shroom Pineda-Bautista, and mother Sandra Bautista of Falls Church. That didn\u2019t mean this day was easy. The three shared hugs, laughter and encouragement, and Alex was in no rush to see them leave.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe\u2019s going to want to stay around for a while,\u201d Alex said with a smile toward their mother, \u201cso I\u2019ll let her.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The parental goodbyes were bound to come later in the day for new Randolph roommates Charlotte Niblett of Lynchburg and Caroline Jacobson of Lovettsville. Among other activities Wednesday were a resource fair, a first-in-family social, a first-letter campaign and the president\u2019s welcome.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tiled-gallery type-rectangular tiled-gallery-unresized\" data-original-width=\"1100\" data-carousel-extra='{&quot;blog_id&quot;:7,&quot;permalink&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/www.umw.edu\\\/news\\\/2022\\\/08\\\/19\\\/umw-move-in-day-is-no-sweat-for-students-parents\\\/&quot;,&quot;likes_blog_id&quot;:230672515}' itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageGallery\" > <div class=\"gallery-row\" style=\"width: 1100px; height: 491px;\" data-original-width=\"1100\" data-original-height=\"491\" > <div class=\"gallery-group images-1\" style=\"width: 734px; height: 491px;\" data-original-width=\"734\" data-original-height=\"491\" > <div class=\"tiled-gallery-item tiled-gallery-item-large\" itemprop=\"associatedMedia\" itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/2022\/08\/19\/umw-move-in-day-is-no-sweat-for-students-parents\/move-in-pineda-bautista\/\" border=\"0\" itemprop=\"url\"> <meta itemprop=\"width\" content=\"730\"> <meta itemprop=\"height\" content=\"487\"> <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" data-attachment-id=\"92974\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2022\/08\/Move-in-Pineda-Bautista-scaled.jpeg\" data-orig-size=\"2560,1707\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;4.5&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;ILCE-7M3&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1660727482&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;70&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;1600&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.0008&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Move in Pineda-Bautista\" data-image-description=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2022\/08\/Move-in-Pineda-Bautista-300x200.jpeg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2022\/08\/Move-in-Pineda-Bautista-1024x683.jpeg\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.umw.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2022\/08\/Move-in-Pineda-Bautista-scaled.jpeg?w=730&#038;h=487&#038;ssl=1\" srcset=\"\/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2022\/08\/Move-in-Pineda-Bautista-scaled.jpeg 2560w, \/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2022\/08\/Move-in-Pineda-Bautista-300x200.jpeg 300w, \/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2022\/08\/Move-in-Pineda-Bautista-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, \/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2022\/08\/Move-in-Pineda-Bautista-768x512.jpeg 768w, \/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2022\/08\/Move-in-Pineda-Bautista-1536x1024.jpeg 1536w, \/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2022\/08\/Move-in-Pineda-Bautista-2048x1365.jpeg 2048w, \/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2022\/08\/Move-in-Pineda-Bautista-680x453.jpeg 680w, \/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2022\/08\/Move-in-Pineda-Bautista-1140x760.jpeg 1140w, \/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2022\/08\/Move-in-Pineda-Bautista-600x400.jpeg 600w\" width=\"730\" height=\"487\" loading=\"lazy\" data-original-width=\"730\" data-original-height=\"487\" itemprop=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/image\" title=\"Move in Pineda-Bautista\" alt=\"Alex Pineda-Bautista, center, gets a hug from mom Sandra Bautista as Shroom Pineda-Bautista adds some younger-sibling energy.
