Big Red has been resting over the summer and now its time to prepare for a very exciting 2022-23 academic year at Central College! 
New students will move to campus beginning Friday, Aug. 19, followed by a fun-filled Welcome Week. Classes begin Wednesday, Aug. 24. We hope alumni will reminisce about their first days on campus.
Remember, you may receive an email to provide input about your relationship with Central, preferred ways of engaging with us and opinions about a potential fundraising campaign. We hope you participate, as your feedback will inform our plans for the future! 
P.S. Going to the state fair? Tag us in your photos (wearing your Central gear) and use #CentralCollege #TheFairestOfThemAll. Keep your eyes out for a fun announcement on Central's social media this week!
