The journey begins—The New Student Orientation staff at Birmingham-Southern puts on a four-day program each fall for incoming and transfer students and their families. More than 350 fresh faces arrived on campus recently for the college’s 157th academic year, which began Aug. 29. The orientation schedule kicked off Aug. 25 with Move-in Day, when dozens of upper-class student volunteers and staff (including BSC President Charles Krulak) helped the incoming students move into their residence halls. Other highlights of orientation included a Convocation ceremony, a hypnotist, service learning, dinners, and square dancing. Pictured above, the Pink orientation group prepares for Service in the City. The group, along with many others, traveled to various sites in Birmingham to perform community service. Projects ranged from sorting donations at the Christian Service Mission downtown to cleaning up the Turkey Creek Nature Preserve in the Pinson area. The Pink group was led by student orientation leaders Anna Wilson, a senior; Lauren Lockhart, a senior; and Will King, a sophomore. Pictured below (from left to right) at the square dance event are King as well as student orientation leaders Chelsea Smith, a senior; Courtney Mauck, a senior; and Anna Bodenhammer, a senior.
