Welcome to Michigan 2008

It starts with U

Information for University Departments & Units


Welcome to Michigan 2008 is August 28-September 1. This year's theme is "It starts with U".

Please contact the Office of New Student Programs at 734-764-6413 or email welcome@umich.edu if you have any questions.


Submitting an Event

If your office or department would like to sponsor an event during Welcome, submit your Welcome to Michigan event(s) using UM*Events! Be sure to check the "Occurs during Welcome Week" checkbox under the Event Type menu. Events must be submitted by July 7, 2008 in order to meet publication deadlines!

Be sure to check the list of this year's Anchor Events and browse the UM*Events calendar to see what events have been submitted thus far in order to not duplicate events or program at the same time as a popular event. This will also help in reducing the number of similar events offered throughout the week.

 

Please contact UM*Events or the Office of New Student Programs if you have questions about the on-line program of events.
 

Promotional Items

Please print an order form for Welcome to Michigan promotional items (t-shirts, buttons, program books, posters, etc.). Fax completed orders to (734) 764-6291 by Thursday, July 3.
