Presenting during HOP?

For those of you who are hosting activities or are invited presenters (thank you!), please note that I will be sending reminder emails soon.

• General Announcements
  • Please expect to have a student or family member drop-in at any point. They may seek you out on their own if they are lost or have questions. 
  • HOP Information Station during HOP Week: If you or an orientation guest has a question about orientation please contact x6270 or visit the Admissions Visitor Center on the 1st Floor of Student & Business Services (SBS) throughout orientation week. All orientation staff will be out & about that week and we partner with Admissions to provide a support station. New students and families are also receiving this contact information.
    • Prior to HOP week, we will continue to respond to questions as quickly as we're able at x3510 or hop@humboldt.edu
  • Orientation has mandatory activities all-day for all 3 days of orientation. Freshmen should not be asked to attend non-HOP activities during these 3 days so as to not conflict with mandatory activities.

Thank you for supporting our new freshmen and their families.

If you have questions or wish to discuss HOP activities, please connect with me directly as you like.

Take care,

Nicholas Conlin, EXT. 3507
