In a string of events hosted for Stampede week, the university held the President’s Picnic from 4:30 p.m. to 6 p.m. on Aug. 22.
The event took place in the Martin Center ballrooms and featured informational booths and tables set up by various campus departments and organizations. Food and snacks were provided as well as space to dine.
Students were able to peruse the tables and learn about the opportunities to get connected and involved in campus life.
Senior musical theatre major Peri Zachymeyer said, “I’m so happy to see all these new students and all these people exploring all the extracurriculars that we have out here, especially Theatre Wesleyan because we love having butts in our seats and seeing people see our shows.”
The event provided an opportunity for students to learn more about what the school has to offer in terms of joining organizations and also meeting the staff and faculty that work to help the students and improve student life.
Junior biology major and transfer student Cassidy Crancer said, “I think it’s pretty helpful just to kind of get to meet people and see what’s around on campus.”
Some new students enjoyed interacting with people at the event and learning about the clubs that are offered.
“Everybody’s so nice and like, there’s so much information and so many clubs I didn’t even know existed until today,” said sophomore undecided major and transfer student Logan Osborne. “This has been a very informational event and I’m so happy I came.”
