With only one more week of summer, Missouri State University and the Department of Religious Studies are gearing up to welcome new and returning students to campus on Welcome Weekend, Friday-Sunday, 14-16 August. A variety of activities are planned to welcome you to the MSU community, to meet other students, and to have fun!
For students moving into the dorms, the Move-in begins on Friday, 14 August. (Honors students begin early on Thursday 13 August.) Volunteers will be there to guide you and help you move your stuff.
Here are some other highlights for Welcome Weekend:
Looking to meet new friends? Head out Friday, 14 August, at 7:30 to Playfair for a lively evening at Allison Recreation Fields.
More fun and games on Saturday, 15 August at the Fan Fest and Bear Bash.
And on Sunday, 16 August, beginning at 12:30 p.m., learn about Fraternity and Sorority Life, followed by the New Student Convocation at 2:00 p.m. and the New Student Festival at 3:00 p.m.
