10:00AM: Meet New Student Group (Designated Locations)

Meet at the spots on campus that your Yellow Shirts have chosen as your group’s meeting location. If you missed this information at the Orientation Pump-Up, make sure to e-mail your Yellow Shirt so you don’t miss out!

10:15AM: Carpe Diem (Gym) & Zumba (Field)

These two events will occur concurrently with half of the Orientation Groups heading to the gym for Carpe Diem and the rest to the field for Zumba, but don’t worry the groups will switch, so you can attend both Orientation activities! Seize the day with some Carpe Diem icebreakers and get ready to shake it with Mount Allison’s very own Zumba instructor: Karen Arsenault!

12:15PM-1:30PM: Lunch (Jennings)

Head straight to Jennings for lunch, as there will be a surprise performance you won’t want to miss!

2:00PM: The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly Show (Convocation Hall)

Head over to Con Hall with your residence to discover the big three pitfalls of university life. The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly Show is both educational and hilarious. There may even be some special guest performers.
