Upcoming Opportunities for Connecting With Students

The Office of Student Activities & Engagement would like to announce several different ways for your department to connect with students at the start of the fall semester:

  • The Eagle Resource Fair will take place on Wednesday, August 17 (first-year move-in day), from noon  to 3 p.m., in the Chandler Ballroom. This fair is an opportunity for groups from on and off campus to interact with new students and their families. Please register for this event.
  • Club Carnival will take place on Wednesday, Aug. 24, from 5 to 7 p.m., on Ball Circle. Club Carnival is similar to the Eagle Resource Fair but on a much larger scale, and it’s an opportunity to interact with many more students. Please register for Club Carnival. 
  • A Student Employment Fair will take place on Thursday, Aug. 25, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., in the University Center Living Rooms. If your department has open student staff positions you’re looking to fill, you’re invited to host a table at the event for students who are looking to work on campus. Please register for this event. 
  • We are currently compiling a list of events that are open to all students to include in the Eagle Takeoff schedule for the first six weeks of the semester. If your department is hosting an event that can be included in this schedule, please submit it.

Questions about any of these events or initiatives? Feel free to email Sandrine at ssutphin@umw.edu.
