each day - a full calendar can be found at http://welcome.arizona.edu.  

 

Below are some events we are highlighting for students this fall.

On Friday, August 17th all new Wildcats are required to attend UA Clicks, a
mandatory introduction to classroom technologies in and out of the
classroom.  The presentation will be facilitated by a faculty member and
current student from the academic college represented at the sessions and
will include mandatory information from the Dean of Students Office.  

 

Students attend a particular UA Click session is based on the academic
