Submit Descriptions to the SOAR Welcome Folder

Greetings,

The Department of Campus Activities and Orientation is asking campus departments and offices to provide information about their services to us to put in Welcome Folders that will be given to incoming first-year students at SOAR, held between July 15-19.

Information should fit on a standard letter-sized piece of paper and should be presented in an attractive layout (please remember that students are unlikely to read documents that are just a lot of words on a colored piece of paper). Please keep in mind that students will be receiving a great deal of information during their time here, so keeping your document succinct will be a service to them, and making it stand out will be of greater service to your department. We would also like to remain environmentally conscious, so if you can fit everything you need on a half sheet of paper that would be greatly appreciated.

All funds required for photocopying are the responsibility of your department. We are expecting nearly 450 first-years to come in this year, so please provide us with 475 copies of your information.

Please have all documents to us by Wednesday, July 9 at 2 p.m. They can be delivered to the Auggie Room (1F) in the Auggie's Nest in Christensen Center.

If you have any questions, please contact us at orientat@augsburg.edu or call at ext. 1100.
