|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Fall is an exciting time for all of us at the university as we gear up for the new school year and welcome our new students. To introduce you to our campus community, we will host a number of activities and programs before classes begin so you can become familiar with the university's array of resources, meet new people, and make new friends. Student Orientation Programs and the Student Orientation Staff are planning exciting events for Week of Welcome (WOW) 2012. There are interest sessions regarding student life as well as social activities to get you settled into campus life. The Week of Welcome book is sent to all new students in August. The WOW book has detailed descriptions of all our new events taking place. Be sure to bring your WOW book to campus with you! NEW: The official University of Oregon app, called UOregon, is now available as a download from the Anroid Marketplace and the App Store. Just search for “University of Oregon.” The app includes special Week of Welcome content (like to-do lists and orientation events), as well as safety information, news, photos and videos, and links to UO social media. And the maps section will welcome you to campus with custom routing to help you find your way around. The app was built by students and staff in the InfoGraphics lab in the UO Department of Geography.
