Welcome to the start of the fall 2018 semester! For returning faculty, staff and students, these early days of the semester are a time of excitement and fresh beginnings. For many other students, this is a special day that marks the first steps of their academic lives at Canisius.
Most freshmen arrived on campus during Move-In Day last Thursday, August 23 and, after getting settled in their new rooms, headed over to the traditional Welcome Rally at the Koessler Athletic Center.
