Assemble Goodie Bags for 2023 Move-In
Help provide a warm welcome to new students this fall by filling out Welcome Cards. Stop by the Volunteer & Civic Engagement Center (Student Union 103) and pick up as many as you would like to complete. We have a goal of 200!
Take them back to your office, or stop by and fill them out in the Student Union. Students have enjoyed receiving these the past two years, and we would love to have your help in making it happen again this year.
Please return completed cards by Thursday, July 27 to ensure they are included in new student goodie bags.
