Subject: Volunteers needed for student Q&A Launching Pads
The Division of Student Affairs, in an effort to better serve students as they return to campus during the first week of classes, will be implementing "Q&A Launching Pads" throughout campus from August 25 - 29. The Launching Pads will serve as an opportunity for students to stop and get questions answered, get directions to campus buildings, and pick up general information about bus schedules, calendar of activities, campus resources, and much more. Most importantly, it will be an opportunity for us to connect with students on an individual level and show our commitment to their smooth transition into Fall semester.
In order for the Launching Pads to "launch" successfuly, we need your full participation and support! Please volunteer to staff at least one shift at a Launching Pad. There will be eight locations across Main Campus and Scott Park. Volunteer shifts will be in two-hour increments from 7:30am - 5:00pm beginning Monday, August 25th and ending Friday, August 29th. Click http://www.enrollmentservices.utoledo.edu/events/register.asp?event_id=1144 to volunteer and be sure to indicate your preferred Launching Pad location(s). We will do our best to accommodate location requests, depending on quantity of volunteers available.
