JOIN THE COMMUNITY
Our Master’s in Higher Education Leadership (MHEL) students may come to campus early to start their internship or graduate assistantship, but we find it is helpful to become familiar with the campus in an academic context—who are your professors, what does coursework look like, what are the academic resources available?
For the 2024-2025 cohort, Orientation will be held Sunday, August 25 from 2 - 5 p.m. Dinner will be provided for all MHEL students from 5 - 7 p.m.
