All students receive e-mail invitations, classroom announcements, and can refer to posters and handouts around campus and on the University website with all the details for the event.
Student Welcome
We want you to start your semester with joy and enthusiasm, and there is nothing that evokes those feelings better than a free and healthful lunch! We welcome you to a new term, every term, by treating you to lunch on the first and second days of school. Food, snacks, and drinks are provided. This event is usually held outside the Main Campus Building: Look for the “Welcome Students” banner. Times and menu are sent out via your student e-mail account.
Student Planner
The Student Planner may be obtained at the beginning of every Fall trimester from Student Services, located on the first floor of the Campus Center.
Service-Learning Requirements
Service Learning engages students in community service activities with intentional academic learning goals and opportunities for reflection that connects to their academic disciplines. Guided reflection is a key component of service learning; students will integrate their service experience(s) with classroom knowledge to enhance the learning process. Service learning is part of the curriculum in select courses and is validated by the faculty of those courses and by the department in which those courses are taught.
Students accepted into a professional program prior to fall 2011 will be required to complete the service learning hours requirements as stated in the Academic Bulletin for the year of their professional program acceptance. If you have questions or concerns about your service learning requirements, please contact the Director of Community Engagement in the Student Services Department.
Student Activities
Student Services provides a variety of opportunities designed to enhance students’ social and relational experiences. Throughout the year, activities include the International Food Festival, New Student Welcome, Spring Picnic, and much more. The dates of these events are published in the Student Planner.
