Welcome Week Small Group Facilitator Registration - 2021

    The incoming class of 2025 will begin their Welcome Week experience on August 16th and we are graciously asking for your assistance!
     
    Volunteers are needed to lead small groups of students for three days during Welcome Week, and to then serve as a point of contact throughout their first semester. This year's curriculum will again be based off of the book Becoming A Learner, which challenges students to carefully reconsider conventional common sense about college and learning, and invites them to consider a new conversation about college and learning that focuses on who they are becoming and their ability to learn. You will be provided with a copy of the book, comprehensive training materials, lunch on Monday and Tuesday of Welcome Week, and a Welcome Week t-shirt.

    Please complete this form by June 15, 2021.

     
    Thank you so much for your commitment to our incoming students!
