KALAMAZOO—ɫɫÀ² Michigan University students who would like to be a positive role model and mentor for a group of incoming first-year students during the week prior to classes beginning this fall are encouraged to apply to be a Fall Welcome Student ambassador.

Applications are due by 5 p.m. Friday, March 15, to the Fall Welcome office, 1535 Ellsworth Hall. Group interviews will be held the week of March 25.

An optional information session will be held from 7:30 to 9 p.m. Monday Feb. 25, in 105 Bernhard Center.
