Happenings in Student Engagement

Dear students,
As we are entering February, I hope you’ve had a great beginning to your spring semester. Student Engagement was excited to host the Spring SEE (Student Engagement Extravaganza) Fair on January 26th and had roughly 100-150 students attending, with almost 40 student organizations represented. We also hosted an opportunity last week for students to write thank you notes for our hardworking staff who made it to campus through the ice and snow during the winter storm to support our students (e.g., Bon Appetit, Facilities, Campus Living and Campus Safety, etc.).
In addition to our daily operations, Student Engagement is also excited to be gearing up for Senior Experience and Commencement for our undergraduate seniors! Seniors will start receiving more information in the upcoming weeks. Check out the website for the most updated news.
Be sure to follow us on Instagram, @LCStudentEngagement to be updated on all of our future events! Wishing you all a terrific spring semester and a Happy Lunar New Year!
Best,
