THEME: Campus Resources
There is much more to a successful undergraduate experience than going to class, writing assignments, and taking tests. Balance is key! We need to have fun, and we need to know where to go for help if we need it. Luckily, you've selected a university that is full of people, offices, and organizations that are in the student-services business!
Workshops within the Campus Resources track will introduce you to these resources. Find out who can help you learn to handle your finances, where to go to meet people, how to get a part-time job, where to take a date without spending a fortune, and even how to deal with a slum landlord.
