Help UNCG make a direct impact on the newest Spartans by helping create a welcoming, supportive, and unforgettable orientation experience.

New Student Transitions & First Year Experience seeks faculty and staff volunteers to support SOAR sessions this June. They create a warm first impression by greeting students and guests, assisting with directions near parking and check-in, and answering general questions.

All interested should sign up by Friday, May 4 at 5 p.m.

Volunteer shifts are two hours in the morning and take place outdoors near SOAR check-in locations. Volunteers will receive a t-shirt, pom-pom, lunch voucher, and other helpful material. They’ll also be invited to attend the SOAR Preview on June 1 at 3 p.m.

Interested volunteers should speak to their supervisor before signing up, as flex or comp time is granted at their discretion, and supervisors will be notified of participation.

Any questions can be sent to Taylor Jones at tnjones8@uncg.edu.
