The journey starts now, and your Wolf Pack is here to help you lead the way! Not sure if your tuition is paid? Has your financial aid come through? Not sure where to get your textbooks? Curious about refunds? Need help with adding or dropping classes?
Join us for an info-packed session to get all your questions answered. You'll walk away feeling confident, prepared, and ready to howl into your first term like a true Wolf!
Cultural Connections is a program sponsored by the PACE (Peer Allies for College Engagement) Program within the Multicultural Student Services & Programs Office, that is designed to provide an orientation opportunity to culturally diverse students. You will have a chance to meet MSSP staff members, the PACE Coordinators and the PACE Mentors that are current students who are excited to work with you and share information about programs and leadership opportunities on campus. Our goal is to support you as you make your transition to Western Oregon University. There is one Cultural Connections Session each week day of Pack Welcome Week and there will be a drawing for prizes at each session! For those of you that attend all of the Cultural Connection sessions, you will be in the drawing for the grand prize at the final session of the week!

They have a long adventure ahead of them, but they must first devise their plan. Can these heroes craft a budget in time to face off against a sinister Golden Dragon?
Join us for a personal finance session taught in the stylings of a Dungeons and Dragons campaign. Improve your understanding of basic budgeting while partaking in a collaborative storytelling game. No prior experience in either is required.
NOTE: This session is also offered in a later Ed Session Block.
