Hello NEW MATADORS!

• Providing an opportunity to gain knowledge and information on campus resources and services
• Offering a framework that will allow students to make informed and appropriate academic plans and social choices
• Encouraging connections among current and new students, faculty, and staff
• Building awareness of campus locations/geography
• Enhancing understanding of strategies for success
