Help Residence Life Welcome The Class Of 2015

It’s hard to imagine but it’s already time to think about freshmen check-in.  The Office of Residence Life expects the largest freshmen resident class since 2007 and faculty and staff are needed to help greet and move in the newest members of the Canisius family on Wednesday, August 24 from 8 a.m. – 2 p.m.  Any time that Canisius faculty and staff can spare is welcomed, and Residence Life will provide breakfast and or lunch to all volunteers. Please contact Al Pilato at pilato1@canisius.edu for more information or to sign up.
