The Office of the University Secretary seeks volunteers to assist with the First-Year Family Day on Sunday, Aug. 17 at 4 p.m. at Popejoy Hall.
UNM's First-Year Family Day is an annual event to celebrate first-year students, transfer students, and honor the family and friends that have helped prepare them for this new phase of their academic journey and introduce them to the UNM Community.
Volunteer hours will be in shifts of two to three hours between 2 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. that day. First-Year Convocation begins at 4 p.m. at Popejoy Hall. A reception follows the Convocation in the UNM SUB ballrooms.
Fill out the short form and sign up to volunteer. Duties include helping guide guests and students, distributing free T-shirts, and more. Anyone interested in volunteering can view the positions and times on the sign-up form. Volunteers will be giving training instructions and parking access. Approximately 40 volunteers are needed to fill a variety of positions.
Volunteer and have some fun welcoming the 2029 First-Year Class and families to campus.
