Students at an activities fair

FYs,

Congratulations on completing Leading Edge!

We look forward to seeing you at the Leading Edge Cookout tonight (Friday) at 6 pm on Cannan Green. Go check out the first Friday Underground (FUDG) of the year beginning at 8 pm at ARC House – a student organized, coffee house setting with live entertainment.


Several optional Saturday activities provide opportunities to relax, have fun, and meet new people. FYOC is facilitating speed friending from 11:30 am-12:30 pm in Commons 216. Then take a group of new friends to tie dye and rec sports on the law lawn near the village pavilion.

If your class t-shirt is dirty, you may want to do laundry as you’ll need your class shirt for the Sunday class photo.

FYOC is providing a student panel from 4-5 pm in Stackhouse to hear directly from upper-division students before grabbing dinner.

Follow your RAs instructions for where and when to gather and get dressed up with your hall for FY Olympics on Wilson Field from 8-9:30 pm under the lights!

The full orientation schedule is on the FYE website.

Sincerely,

FYE Team - Dean Rodocker, Dean Graves and Colleen Drake
