Final Orientation Day on Monday!
|

|
We hope you had a fantastic first day of Orientation last Thursday! Our faculty and staff truly enjoyed meeting each of you. The positive energy throughout the day was great to see, and we trust you had a wonderful time connecting with everyone at the New Student Social - your very first Brandeis Business community event. Whether you enjoyed a drink with a new classmate or had fun playing table tennis with our Dean, we hope you had a great time. Congratulations to the Bingo winners! We’ll have more prizes to give away as Orientation continues.
|
We also hope you had a restful weekend and look forward to seeing you tomorrow, the final day of Orientation! A light breakfast will be available between 9 - 10 a.m. in the World Court, Lemberg Academic Center before the Case Study/Analysis Sessions.
