Volunteers Needed to Help New Students


On Aug. 12 and 13, the first two days of class, there will be some students who have difficulty finding classes and offices because they are not familiar with the campus and are nervous about being new. To help with this, the university has "welcome stations" on campus where lost students can stop and ask for help.


There will be two stations - one in the TLC Lobby, and one in front of the UCC. The Thursday stations will be open 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. and the Friday ones will be open 7:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. The tables will have maps and other campus information, and there will be two volunteers per station.


If you are a UWG faculty or staff member or a knowledgeable student who is available to volunteer during those times, your assistance is welcome. It's a fun way to meet students. .


Please contact Debbie North (dnorth@westga.edu) by Aug. 6 to sign up for one (or more!) 2-hour blocks on either Aug. 12 (7:30-9:30, 9:30-11:30, 11:30-1:30, 1:30-3:30, 3:30-5:30) and/or Aug. 13 (7:30-9:30, 9:30-11:30).

After you sign up, you'll receive more details.
