Volunteers needed for MyStart information booths

Running Tuesday, September 7 through Friday, September 10, the MyStart information booths will welcome new and returning students to campus, including a significant number of second-year students who may be on campus for the first time. Volunteers will answer students’ questions and help them navigate campus.
