Preparing a warm welcome

UVic's Student Transition Services staff (L-R: Sue Corner, Dustin Meredith, April McNeil and Melana Mar) and student volunteers collate info packs for more than 1,900 new undergraduate and graduate students who started at UVic this month. On Sept. 7, New Student Orientation featured faculty and campus tours for new students and their parents, plus an opening convocation ceremony where students officially became Vikes. The day ended with the President's Welcome Barbeque and Information Carnival.
