Summary: As John Boy starts his first day of college, things don't go well for him, especially when he arrives and parks in a faculty parking lot, ultimately getting his car towed. He also becomes the butt of the city students jokes for being a "country boy" and forgets some important registration papers at home. Meanwhile at home, Jason attempts to fill in for John Boy around school and at home. When Miss Hunter sees what Jason is attempting, she tells him to be himself, or he won't be able to live his life the way he was born to.

Season 3 / Episode 3: - The First Day

Narrator: [narration as John 'John Boy' Walton, Jr. reading from his journal] Waltons Mountain meant many things to my family. It was a source of food, for we took game from its forests and fish from its streams. It was a refuge in time of trouble and a link with the history of our family's past. And once, it became the setting for a race that none of us would ever forget.
