New Student Orientation
Weeks of Welcome
Weeks of Welcome (WOW) at Genesee Community College occur in the first weeks of classes. Programs are a co-sponsored effort between the Office of Student Engagement & Inclusion and a number of campus partners, as well as area community agencies to “kick-off’ the semester and welcome both new and returning students to GCC.
WOW provides events and activities that promote engagement on campus by meeting new people, reconnecting with old friends and acquaintances, learning important information, and just having FUN! Be sure to attend as many of the events as you can during the week, and get just a taste of what GCC has to offer!
