Welcoming Back our Students: A Welcome Week Recap

September 10, 2021 | Hamilton | Ontario
Contributed by Chris Gaspic, Marketing and Communications Strategist

Students are at the centre of DeGroote’s community, and this week campus sprang to life during Welcome Week 2021.

At the start of the fall term, incoming first year students moved between activities on campus and transitioned to university life with the help of upper year students in colourful jumpsuits. DeGroote, represented by more than 100 Welcome Week reps, affectionately known as Greensuits, had a simple mandate: support first-year students in any way they could.

We’ve recapped their first week back, after 18 months away from campus.
