New Student Orientation is set for Friday, September 10th from 6-8pm at historic Sherzer Hall on the campus of EMU.  It will be held in the fourth floor classroom.  Dinner and refreshments will be provided! Meet the faculty and fellow students as well as several guests who will give their wisps of wisdom on the ins-and-outs of the program, the graduate school, and EMU.

Additionally, this will be the first opportunity for students to join Preservation Eastern for the upcoming school year.  We have set the yearly dues for new students at $15 for 1 year and $25 for 2 years.  If a students attends Orientation and they sign up at that time, they can get the “Orientation Special,” which includes a 2 year membership and a P.E. t-shirt for only $30! A great opportunity! Cash only please.

Returning students, as well as our new students, are welcome to join the Alumni for their annual “Evening Under the Stars” dessert reception immediately following orientation on the roof deck of Sherzer Hall! Depending upon weather conditions, the Astronomy Department will let us view the sky with their telescope as well! Feel free to bring spouses and family to this unique event!

We hope to see you there!
