Welcome Week: September 15-19, 2025
We’re excited to kick off Welcome Week across all campus locations! This week is designed to help students connect, feel supported, and get energized for the year ahead.
Activities include:
- College-Wide Scavenger Hunt: Students can team up by program/class to complete fun challenges online. Details will be sent via email.
-
Bee Well Bags: Available at each campus, these locally made bags contain mental health resources and mood-boosting items. Students can take one discreetly – no need to ask.
-
Classroom Kits: Each program will receive a kit with wellness tools like calming strips, fidgets, affirmation cards, and more to support focus and engagement.
-
Coffee & Snacks with Advisors: Watch for information about meetups at designated campus spots. Snacks will be on hand, with the meetups offering informal ways to connect to members of the student advising team.
-
Student Loan Info Session: Join Student Advisor Stephanie Buhs on Zoom, Thursday, September 18 at 4:00 PM, for tips and guidance on the loan process. The link will be shared with all students at the start of the week.
-
Resources: Watch for an email to be shared during Welcome Week with a curated list of apps, podcasts, tools, and community resources to help students (and instructors!) stay organized and motivated.
Kick off the semester on a positive note by joining in the 2025 Welcome Week activities happening across Carlton Trail College this week!
