Assistant Director of Student Life Programs Robert Schoenberg said this element of New Student Orientation is designed to help students understand the University community. "It is intended to help first-year undergraduates learn about being a member of a pluralistic community," Schoenberg said. "How certain behavior can interfere with living successfully with people who are different." Schoenberg also said that the program will stress the resources available in a diverse community. Facilitators are required to attend an orientation session either in July, August or September and will need to be available for final instructions just prior to the program. The office is also inviting students, faculty, and staff to serve on the Diversity Education Planning Sub-Committees. Information is available in the Office of Student Life Programs. -- Stephen Glass
