名媛直播

Welcome Week is an extended orientation designed to help you settle into campus, build connections with the 名媛直播 community, find opportunities that match your interests, and develop a sense of belonging on 名媛直播's campus before classes start.

Welcome Week is aimed to be common yet customizable, letting you choose your own adventure throughout the week. Activities include social events local to Erie as well as meetings with your 名媛直播 101 group. You can look forward to kayaking on Presque Isle, taking a tour on Lake Erie on the Victorian Princess, attending an Erie SeaWolves baseball game, or other on campus activities such as yoga, crafts, laser tag and bumper cars.
