This is the home of the Orientation Newsletter. We’ll be in touch with you each week to keep you in-the-know about important deadlines, fun events and other must-have info. (Parents and guardians: You’ll be copied, too, so you’ll know what’s happening on campus throughout your student’s first college year.)
Keep an eye on your inbox each Thursday evening to catch the latest edition.
