Submitted by Communications and Marketing
Making new students feel welcome and at home on the Kansas State University campus right away will be the job of 20 students selected to serve as 2013-2014 orientation leaders.
These select individuals inform new students about resources, services, activities and facilities available at the university through large- and small-group sessions.
To prepare for summer orientation and enrollment sessions, as well as the school year ahead, the new orientation leaders participate in training sessions during the spring semester and early summer, fine-tuning their knowledge of services and resources on campus. They also develop interactive presentations for new students and learn leadership skills.
