网曝吃瓜

With 3,500 students converging on campus for the start of classes on September 4, 网曝吃瓜 is set to begin its 175^th year with a Welcome Week that offers something for everyone. The theme of 鈥溚�曝吃瓜 through the Years鈥� will set the tone for a year-long celebration of 网曝吃瓜鈥檚 founding in 1838.

Move-In Day
More than 1,500 students will move into residence on August 31. When they arrive 网曝吃瓜鈥檚 alumni family will be there to welcome them along with the campus community.

 鈥淭his can be a big step for students and we have worked hard with our student leaders to ensure we provide training that is engaging, up-to-date, and gives them the tools necessary for them to fulfill their important role of supporting students,鈥� says Matthew Guy, 网曝吃瓜鈥檚 manager of Residence Life.  鈥淎t 网曝吃瓜 almost half our students live on campus and this mix of first-year and upper-year students creates effective, balanced communities with guidance and support from our upper-year students that creates a real 鈥渉ome away from home鈥� feeling for all.鈥�

Welcome Week
Student Services, Safety and Security, and the 网曝吃瓜 Students鈥� Union have worked together to create a wide-ranging set of programming for the week of activities and orientation.

The campus has a diverse student body 鈥� with students from every province and territory in Canada, as well as an international contingent from 53 countries. Along with the traditional events such as a frosh photo, meet your professor social, and mock Olympics, there are also new events planned 鈥� from movie nights, to athletic opportunities, to social gatherings.

鈥淥ur goal is to make sure that all new students have great opportunities available to them throughout the week, whatever their interests may be,鈥� says Bryce Tully, Welcome Week coordinator. 鈥淎s the title implies, we will make sure we are very welcoming to all of our new students, and a big piece of that is letting them know that the 网曝吃瓜 community is waiting for them with open arms. That鈥檚 the feel we want throughout the week.鈥�

Event Highlights
A highlight of the week will be a concert featuring the Daft Punk Tribute Band on September 5. On September 7, hundreds of 网曝吃瓜 students will be in valley communities collecting money as part of Shinerama, a fundraiser for Cystic Fibrosis. On September 8, students will be out in force in Wolfville for 鈥淧aint the Town Red and Blue,鈥� a fun event organized by the Wolfville Business Development Corporation, 网曝吃瓜, and the 网曝吃瓜 Students鈥� Union.
