Residence Hall Move-In is Under Way

The moment is finally here, and students are once again moving into the residence halls, with most moving in between August 25 and 31. Your hard work and tireless efforts under this year's challenging circumstances have made this possible. It all pays off with positive comments such as this one from a parent: "We moved our daughter into Witte yesterday and we were very happy with how organized and coordinated the process was! We pulled into the designated parking area and staff was setup and ready to assist with every question we had and it was in a friendly, patient manner! This was despite them having to endure 85 degree heat while wearing face masks the whole time! The move-in carts were so helpful along with a person manning the elevators to keep everything organized and moving! Thank you UW staff for making a stressful and emotional day a little easier for all of us!" Thank you for all you do, and keep up the great work!
