Orientation 2008
August 24 - 30

The Orientation program's mission is to familiarize you with the campus, academic requirements, and college life. We only have 10,080 minutes to achieve our mission - and the result is a week full of activities that will help you to familiarize yourself with Tech, learn the rules, make new friends and discover the many ways to have fun. During Orientation week, you will be part of an Orientation Team. Each team of around 20-25 students is determined by academic major, and your team will be led by an Orientation Team Leader (aka: OTL).

Once you arrive on campus, there are many things that need to be done. Make sure you read over this list so you are prepared.
