Record number of new students attended Welcome Days
August 29th, 2024
Welcome Days occurred on August 19 and 20, 2024 with a record attendance of 2,675 students! This is an increase of 279 students over last year.
Excited students attended presentations, explored the college, and learned about opportunities to get involved in Campus Life. They also took pictures with Blue, our celebrity volunteer, who was hard at work (see )!
One of the highlights of this year was handing out agendas to the students. This project stemmed from a months-long collaboration between Student Services and the 七星彩开奖 Student Union to offer this in-demand item.
Welcome Days is a team effort meaning that it can鈥檛 be successful without the participation of multiple departments, teachers, staff and student volunteers. I鈥檇 like to thank everyone that helped make these two days possible, whether you gave a program presentation, set up one of the rooms, worked at the sign-in table, promoted your service, took students from one place to another or handed out popcorn!

The Warren G. Flowers Gallery is delighted to welcome Vancouver artist Cassia Powell, whose exhibition, in between you and me, opens today (Thursday, Aug. 29) with an Artist Talk in the gallery at 4 PM., followed by the opening reception at 5 PM.
This body of work explores what Gavin Butt refers to as a 鈥渟ocial activity which produces and maintains the filiations of the artistic community,鈥� namely 鈥� gossip.听 Using soft-sculptures and oil paintings, Powell explores intimacy, vulnerability, storytelling, and worldbuilding.听Gossip is framed as a form of unconventional art history, an inescapable feature of urban artistic life, and听a way of building queer and artistic communities.
