New Seawolves were welcomed to campus during UAA’s Howl Days on Aug. 9. Howl Days are a series of orientation sessions designed for new students to get comfortable with campus before they begin classes. 

Orientation began in the lower level of the Student Union, where students had a chance to meet with representatives from different departments on campus and learn more about a variety of programs. Students then played a round of bingo as an icebreaker before moving into a presentation that explained the variety of services and programs that UAA offers. After the presentations were finished, orientation leaders led students on a tour of important spots on campus.
