Dear Eagles,
As we settle into our second week of the semester, campus is bustling with a variety of exciting opportunities to get involved! Highlights include the Murray Center for Student Wellness's Well Fest, the BAIC Open House, Taste of Off Campus event, and our annual Mass of the Holy Spirit. For our first year students, get ready for convocation!
The athletic schedule is equally full, featuring Men's and Women's soccer games as well as our first home football game this Friday night. Be sure to stop by the McMullen Museum of Art to explore its fall exhibition, and mark your calendars and register for the Career Center's business fair; for our juniors, seniors, and graduate students, check out their Mentor Match program.
Sincerely,
Dr. Corey Kelly,
Vice President for Student Affairs
