Annual Student Affairs Events

The Division of Student Affairs sponsors a number of annual events throughout each academic year. To see all events hosted by the division and other groups on campus, visit RamPulse!

New Student Orientation	The Office of New Student Programs assists students with their transition to the Shepherd Community. A collaborative effort from faculty, staff, and student leaders provides incoming students with valuable information about resources accessible to them.
Family Day	Shepherd University welcomes Ram Families to a day in Shepherdstown each September. Events are scheduled out and shared to families at the start of the academic year.
First Fridays	It is clear that our division is passionate about our institution. And, most importantly, we are passionate about recognizing and supporting our students. First Fridays provide an opportunity for departments, student groups, and community supporters to share in expressing that same passion. First Fridays are an opportunity to gather, enjoy free giveaways, and celebrate the “I Love Shepherd” motto we all feel. To find the next month’s event, go to RamPulse.
Our Campus Cares	The Office of Student Community Service hosts the Our Campus Cares Initiative to immerse participant groups in one goal—to be agents of change in our society on a local and national level.
Student Recognition Awards	Annually, the Division of Student Affairs honors students who have earned leadership and distinguished honors through their club, organization, or the division. Click on the link to the left for this past year’s award winners.
