USciences hosted a series of Welcome Days on campus for incoming students. From June 22-24, students and their families joined student orientation leaders and admissions staff on campus for tours, games, and a chance to meet their fellow new classmates.

Each morning Drake the Devil, USciences mascot, was present for photos with students and their families as they arrived on campus. Food trucks were available each day for lunch, and a DJ and lawn games on the campus Quad kept the fun going.

Events also included guided group ice breakers, where students were able to get to know one another through a series of activities that tested their creativity, problem solving skills, and teamwork.

These welcome days were part of the overall orientation schedule for incoming 2021-2022 students. Learn more about USciences orientation events here.
