work with him and his Shineteam to set and break new re-cords. I can assure you the O-Team is working hard this sum-mer to provide the pinnacle inthe Orientation Week experi-ence for incoming first years as

well as every single volunteer.The new Bootcamp and Move-

In Day format may come to asurprise to many; but it is anecessary step forward in theoverall process of OrientationWeek due to the always in-creasing amount of incomingFirst Year Students (FYS). Thisdecision was made to-day. There is still programming

on Monday for already moved instudents and Opening Ceremoniesquestions that need to be an-swered, but will be made beforeand then presented to you all atVoSuCo. This is very exciting newsand will cut down on the stressthat comes with move-in day. FYShave not been made aware of thischange yet but will be in the nextfew days as ResLife will be updat-

ing their website tomorrow. Ifanyone has any questions or con-cerns, don't hesitate to email mekduquette@wlu.ca or call me at519-884-0710 x4464. I cannot waitto see new and old faces on July22-DQG,KRSH\RXFDQWZDLWeither!
