Picture it: Hundreds of admitted students and families arrive on our beautiful campus this spring. Beyond green grass and cherry blossom buds, we welcome them in our best L&C orange and black duds!

College of Arts & Sciences (CAS) Admissions will kick off its admitted students program on Friday, February 14, bringing hundreds of prospective undergraduate students and their families to campus. Employees are encouraged to wear L&C school spirit gear every Friday through April to show up for admitted students and their families and show off our school spirit!

Do you work at the graduate school or law school? Prospective undergraduates students and their families love to check out your beautiful buildings and grounds too!
