Welcome Week Development

Welcome Week 2008
Wednesday, August 27- September 1, 2008

This Web page has been developed to keep the University of Minnesota community of faculty, staff, and students up-to-date with the progress of planning this campus-wide program. Please understand that the documents posted on this site are in draft form, and are updated as we continue to develop Welcome Week. Any feedback and/or questions in regards to Welcome Week can be directed to ofyp@umn.edu.

The official Welcome Week Web site is now up and is the link that should be used to direct people to general information about Welcome Week.
