Orientation week
kicks off Aug. 18, with thousands of new students arriving to campus as part of
Move-In Day at the University of San Francisco.
But moving is
only the start of Move-In Day. Students will
receive their student IDs, meet their roommates and resident advisers, and choose
from workshops on topics ranging from how to become involved in clubs and
student government to how to land that all-important internship to how best to
navigate San Francisco.
View a video of Move-In Day 2011. Families, too,
can choose from workshops offering tips on transitioning their students to
college and helping them stay on track to graduate in four years, as well as
information on USF’s study abroad options.
Other
orientation week events include a welcome Mass and new student convocation, a community
barbecue, a live music and dance event, and the always-popular comedic
hypnotist show featuring Chuck Milligan.
Skeptics,
prepare to be impressed.
