March to College Day 4/22

Tue, 12 Apr 2016 17:43:25 -0400

March to College day is coming up on Friday April 22nd! This day brings all the 7th grade students at Arbutus Middle School to UMBC. Students will learn about how to prepare for college and what opportunities are available on campus.

There are two ways you can get involved.

1) Between 10:30-11:30 give 2 twenty minute talks on college. In past years volunteers gave talks on stress relief, budgeting, and student organizations. These talks will be made by volunteers and can be on whatever subject is interesting to them. Volunteers will send me either a transcription or a presentation on their talk for approval. Some volunteers may do these talks in groups, depending on the amount of volunteers.

2) Between 12:00-1:30 lead two 30 minutes tours across campus. Volunteers get to pick what location they find most interesting across campus and show them to their students. This gives volunteers an opportunity to show their students what makes college special to them. Volunteers should submit a rough outline of what tour locations they want to go to. All tours will start and end at Erickson field. Some volunteers may do these tours in groups depending on the amount of volunteers.

If you would be interested in volunteering, please let Max know at maxpool1@umbc.edu.
