SIUE Kicks Off Spring 2021 Semester With Winter Welcome

Southern Illinois University Edwardsville is kicking off the spring 2021 semester with creative and safe activities.

Volunteer faculty, staff and students stood outside on Tuesday, Jan. 19 holding Ask Me! signs. The volunteers greeted students on their first day of classes and helped them navigate campus.

In the Goshen Lounge, free ‘e’ masks were distributed. Additionally, the Campus Activities Board (CAB) launched its Back 2 School programs with a Back 2 School Box Pick-up offering. Students picked up a bag of goodies to help get their semester started.

Upcoming CAB events include:

• Majority Rules will take place at 7:30 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 21. Students will play a virtual trivia game and be entered for a chance to win Amazon gift cards.
• A Word Art: Take and Make will be available in the Goshen Lounge from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. Monday, Jan. 25. Students can sign-up for a chance to pick-up a letter art kit to make in the comfort of their home.
• Additional January Take and Makes will include Hot Coco Kits & Bullet Journals and Winter Shadow Boxes and Tea Kits.

For a complete list of activities, students should visit CAB’s Get Involved page and follow CAB on social media @SIUECAB.
