Hello Class of 2017!


Welcome back! I hope the move-in process was quick and smooth for all of you! We are very excited to see all of you back on campus. I want to take this time to plug a couple of events coming up in September. First up, please mark your calendars for Wednesday, September 17th coming to the Fiesta Room to facilitate the StrengthsQuest Kickoff. This session will allow you to learn more about your top five themes and how you can integrate them into your life. If you are interested in taking the StrengthsQuest assessment but have not received a code, please e-mail me for one. more>>
