Welcome Fest' introduces new students to ONU
Ohio Northern University's new students will be introduced to the numerous campus organizations and activities during “Welcome Fest” from 1:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. on Sunday on the campus. The event will be held on the “tundra,” west of the chapel in the heart of campus.
Representatives of approximately 120 student groups are expected to participate in a Welcome Fest.
The traditional activity introduces new students to opportunities on campus and helps new students in the transition to college life.
In its efforts making student safety a top priority every student who moved onto campus this week received a Polar Pack that includes a fabric face covering, thermometer, hand sanitizer and first aid kit.
Students from the College of Pharmacy assembled the packs earlier in the week. Fall semester classes begin Monday, Aug. 10.
