Hello Class of 2022!

Congratulations, you are almost done with your first semester at WashU! We hope you all had a great semester and are ready for winter break. As we wrap up this semester, we have some reminders on important dates and an announcement of some exciting news.
 
As finals approach, stress and anxiety may heighten. While you are studying hard for your exams, remember to eat healthy, sleep, exercise, and take breaks. Good Luck! Finals Popup is happening TONIGHT! It is 6 - 8 PM in BD. Stop by for some tasty treats, a photo booth, and button making.

Apply to be a First-Year Student Leader

Consider joining the First Year Center team as a BEAR Leader or a WUSA! There is one application for both roles and we encourage you to consider applying for one or both roles, depending on the time commitment that may work best for you. This is an opportunity to not only welcome the incoming first-years and make an impact on their college transition, but also experience personal leadership development and professional growth.

The First Year Center seeks candidates who are approachable, dependable, dedicated, knowledgeable, role models, and committed to welcoming new students to campus. 

The application is now open and due February 12th at noon. Visit firstyear.wustl.edu/apply for more information.
