U of M Welcome Week kicks off with move-in day tomorrow

President Kaler will help students unpack 2-3 p.m.

First-year students and their parents will be sharing hugs and saying their goodbyes tomorrow (Tuesday, Aug. 30) during move-in day, when the first crop of U of M students settle into their dormitories before the fall semester begins.

The move-in experience starts one week before classes begin and also kicks off Welcome Week, six days of orientation and on-campus activities designed to enhance academic and personal experiences for new students.

Move-in day may be a little stressful, but students won’t have to move all of their belongings alone. Helpful U of M staff will be on hand. Even U of M President Eric Kaler will be helping students move in from 2 to 3 p.m. tomorrow.

The move-in experience will take place in the U of M SuperBlock (701 Fulton St. S.E., Minneapolis) of dormitories that comprises Centennial Hall , Frontier Hall , Pioneer Hall and Territorial Hall.
