Welcome Day 2012


LBCC will take orientation to a whole new level on Welcome Day, taking place at the Albany campus on Sept. 19, from 10 a.m. - 2 p.m.

“Welcome Day was designed to make new students feel welcome, get to know their way around campus, and to find out all the wonderful resources that are available to them.”  says Susan McNaught, Associate Dean of Academic Development, Communication Arts and Mathematics.

There will be department tours, information tables, student club information, and the chance to meet your student leadership council. “We want students to get engaged and feel connected with this community.” says McNaught. “Linn-Benton has an amazing amount of resources and services we provide.”

Attending the event, which takes place the week before Fall term begins, not only gives students the opportunity to find out about those and to be better prepared for the new school year, but to participate in a variety of fun activities.

There will be free food, goody bags, a fashion show, mini-golf, and a campus-wide scavenger hunt, and choir performances. James Redden, LBCC’s Choir Director, will be bringing a couple vocal groups who performed at the 2012 Summer Olympics in London.

Welcome Day is a free, fun event for new and returning students. You can enter drawings for free tuition certificates and a 60-second bookstore shopping spree. You might even see our mascot, the roadrunner, making his rounds. So come on down Sept. 19,  and show your school spirit!
