Celebrating Cultural Diversity Weekend Visits and Athletics Open House

The following message is from the Office of Admissions: 

Friday, April 11, the University of Mary Washington will host Celebrating Cultural Diversity Weekend, an overnight program for admitted students from underrepresented populations and their families.  UMW students will host up to 50 admitted student guests, taking them to class, touring campus, participating in planned activities, and sleeping in the residence halls. The event concludes with a community breakfast for hosts, faculty, and staff with these admitted students as the guests of honor. Alumnus Charles Reed ’11 will offer remarks at the breakfast as will Kevin Lopez ’14, President Hurley, and Dr. Leah Cox.

Sunday, April 13, Admissions and Athletics have partnered to host an Athletics Open House. About 150 prospective student-athletes and their families will visit. Please extend every courtesy and generous hospitality to these visitors. The Athletics Open House schedule includes events from 8:30 a.m. until 3 p.m. Visitor parking has been reserved in the parking deck.  The event will primarily take place in the Anderson Center with campus/residence hall tours between 11:30 and 12:30. Lunch will be served at the Battleground Athletic Complex.

Help us get #UMWCCDW trending on Instagram and Twitter Friday, and #UMWOpenHouse, #UMWEagleNation, and #EagleFamily trending on Instagram and Twitter Sunday. Tag @UMWAdmissions on both Instagram and Twitter and @UMWAthletics and @UMWEagleNation on Twitter.

It’s a great WEEKEND to be an Eagle! Help our guests know their presence is a pleasure. While the Office of Admissions sponsors these events, the entire campus assumes the role of host. Thank you for helping to make a great impression on our visitors, and for exemplifying our brand, our mission and our UMW community!
