I'm counting down the days until the start of our semester! The next time you hear from me, you'll likely already be on your way here.
This edition of Keeping Bobcats Informed is filled with all the details of the events planned for you during Welcome Week. Before you arrive, you can start exploring the hundreds of student organizations around campus, seeing which group fitness classes will fit in your schedule, or looking for student employment options. As you start your journey here, you'll find countless opportunities for growth and meeting new Bobcats.
I'll see you in just a few weeks!
