Syracuse Welcome 2010, Syracuse University’s new-student orientation program, offers many events designed to assist students and families new to SU. These events prepare students for classes, help them move into their residence halls, introduce them to campus services and support, familiarize them with traditions, and allow them to meet classmates.
Faculty/staff and student volunteers are needed to greet new students and their parents and assist with a variety of social events. More than 3,200 students are expected to arrive in August, and the efforts of volunteers will ensure they begin their SU experience positively.
Volunteers must be registered by June 1. To register as a volunteer, visit http://swvolunteers.syr.edu.
