L.U. Orientation Offered for New Students

Lakehead University is giving students enrolling in classes at its Thunder Bay campus an opportunity to get familiar with the surroundings well before the start of classes.

Every Friday until the end of August, students can visit the university to register for their student identification and tour the facilities.

Student Orientation officer Brendan Hughes says they can also help students with questions about courses.

"During the summer, some people have questions regarding registration or what courses they should be in," says Hughes. "or maybe they thought they wanted to go into one program but they're mulling over a different choice. We do have academic advisers on hand to able to see new students and give that guidance."

Hughes says students can also receive tours of residence, but won't be allowed to move in until later in August.
