- Student Socials
During Welcome Week, we have multiple opportunities to socialize with students who have shared identities. These spaces include: Commuters, Transfers, First Gen, International, Veteran/Military Affiliated, Academic Schools and Cultural Centers. Make sure you check these spaces out throughout Welcome Week, as they will provide a smaller space to get to know your fellow incoming students.
