Mandatory Event for Freshmen

Welcome home!

We know there are so many questions about the transition to college and tonight will help answer those questions and ease the transition!  You will create new bonds with your FYE Peer Mentor, ACAD 101 faculty, and classmates. ACAD 101 sections will meet in classrooms across campus.  

Locations are listed below.  Students should attend based on your ACAD 101 section number (far left column).  To find your ACAD 101 section number, look at your course schedule in Wingspan.  Your section number is the last 3-4 digits of your class (ex. ACAD 101-XXX).  If you're not sure of your section number or where to go, ask your Peer Mentor or OL.  On the website is the list of ACAD classes and instructors with Peer Mentors.
