Kickoff to Opening Days
2009 Summer Event Dates

You and your family are encouraged to meet other new students and families from your area who will also be joining the Willamette community this fall.  Current students and alumni will talk about their first-year experiences at Willamette, and Willamette staff will share information about housing, registration, Opening Days, the College Colloquium and other topics.


Here is the schedule for Summer 2009.  Email invitations were sent to new students living near these kick-off events.  If you did not receive an invitation and would like additional information, please contact 877-LIBARTS or libarts@willamette.edu.
