Centenary’s Best Week Ever begins on the Wednesday prior to classes beginning. New students will be able to move into their residence halls, check in for the program, and meet their Resident Advisor (RA).
Students will spend the next 4 days getting to know their classmates and becoming familiar with the Centenary community. In addition to the fun games and activities, there will be opportunities to learn to navigate the cafeteria (the more you know, the better it is), de-stress during difficult times, and get the most of the Centenary Experience. The program will culminate on Sunday evening with a closing ceremony and a festival in the Quad featuring a band, a cook out, and lots of opportunities for involvement.
There is also something for Parents. They will be able to check-in beginning on Thursday morning and will have sessions where they learn about the campus community, hear from parents of other Centenary students, and ask questions from current students. The parent program ends with the Farewell lunch on Friday.
The staff consists of 35 students involved in a variety of ways across campus. The student staff works on one of the following committees: Parents and Family, Skit, Check-In/Registration, and Publicity and Signage. They arrive a week before the Best Week Ever begins and work hard to prepare campus for the arrival of the incoming students.
