Orientation Feedback - please fill out the survey September 5, 2024

FYs,

Congratulations on beginning college!

We hope you are off to a great start and would love your feedback. Please take a few minutes to fill out the FY Survey. The more detail you provide the better. Please note the survey is completely confidential, so you should contact us directly if there is something that may require follow up.

If you are interested in being on First-Year Orientation Committee (FYOC) next year, please email Katalyn Denby '26 and she will reach out to you when applications become available later this fall.

When making travel plans for between fall and winter terms, please remember to utilize the full exam week. Booking travel to leave campus early in exam week just puts unnecessary pressure on yourself. If you may be contemplating Greek Life, make sure to keep the January formal recruitment dates in mind. Information about the University Shuttle and other options is on the transportation page. Also on the transportation page is information about the Maury Express, a public transit system that operates in Lexington, Buena Vista, and Rockbridge County. The service is free for W&L students and is particularly useful for students without vehicles getting to Walmart and Kroger.

Please mark your calendars for Sunday, November 3 (Gaines 1-3pm, Graham-Lees 3:30-5:30pm) for Continuing Education.

Everyone is encouraged to review the FYE 100 content at your earliest convenience, discuss it with your hall mates, and ask questions of your RA and PC.

Best wishes on a great First-Year Experience!

Sincerely,

FYE Team - Dean Rodocker, Dean Bryant, Dean Hodge, and Mariel Potter
