Each year, Orientation & Family Programs sends about 24 Spartan Orientation Staff to the Southern Regional Orientation Workshop (SROW), which was held on the campus of Mississippi State this year. Orientation leaders from over 75 colleges and universities across the southeastern United States attended. During the workshop, the leaders gathered ideas for ways to improve orientation programs as well as gained tips for enhancing their orientation skills. Participating SOS members returned to UNCG with valuable and creative information to integrate into our Spartan Orientation, Advising & Registration program (SOAR).
Each school presents a roll call and takes part in numerous competitions such as song/skit, banner, and t-shirt design. Other activities include break-out programs presented by other orientation leaders, a high energy sticker swap, and a time for students to trade t-shirts with those from different schools. Your SOS ’10 will be traveling to University of Louisville in Kentucky for SROW in March 2010.
