Cohort 14 Orientation

Comm Lead Orientation 2014 will be held on Sunday, September 14th from 10 AM to 4 PM Mary Gates Hall, Room 287 on the University of Washington Campus.

For those driving, there is parking in the Central Garage under Red Square. Please follow this link for more information: https://www.washington.edu/facilities/transportation/commuterservices/parking

For those bussing, many busses are convenient to the UW campus. And for those biking, there are bike racks outside the library. If you're flying in, your on your own (though we don't recommend landing on Red Square)!

Orientation includes a welcome from Comm Lead Director Hanson Hosein, and a variety of activities that are geared to familiarize you with the campus and the program including the ever-popular student panel where as the new cohort, you get to fire questions as some of our seasoned Comm Lead students. And did we mention there will be great food?

Speaking of food, for those with food restrictions, we strive to accommodate every person's individual dietary requests. When you register for orientation, you will have an opportunity to communicate your food needs. We will be provide vegetarian, vegan and gluten free options.

Please note that we will have photographers at orientation taking headshots of each of you prior to lunch. We ask that you wear whatever you feel comfortable in. The Comm Lead program will keep the photos on file but you will also have access to these headshots after they have been taken for your own use.
