As we welcome the new year, we also welcome new students to Alexander College! Winter 2026 New Student Orientation was our first event of the year where we helped new students familiarize themselves with the campus, student support services, and other fellow students new and old.
Similar to previous New Student Orientations, the first stop for the students is the check-in desk where they receive their tote bags containing useful information. Once the students are settled in, various departments under Student Support Services, such as Academic Advising, introduce themselves and go over the main services they provide. The Alexander College Student Association (ACSA) also introduce themselves since they are one of the points of contact for students when they need help.
Following the presentations, the students are encouraged to introduce themselves to other new students as well as the event volunteers through a series of icebreaker activities and games. The event concludes with a guided tour of the campus and lunch.
A huge thank you to the Student Life team for hosting this event and all the volunteers that made this event possible!
To all the new students: welcome to Alexander College!
