Spend the morning moving in and getting settled in your room; then join other new students and their family members in Christ Chapel for your official welcome to campus. You'll also meet members of your orientation group (also referred to as O-Group), enjoy a picnic on the green, and participate in a Commissioning Service. After parents and siblings say their "see you later's," you'll end the day with Screen on the Green, an outdoor movie night.

To encourage students to find a church home, members of each residence hall have the option of attending a church service together. After worship, enjoy a Sunday brunch followed by games on the green, sand volleyball, Sunday sundaes, and the O-Show. An outdoor candlelight Sunday night Praise + Worship service will bring the day to a close.
