Your Campus Connection

Description:

U School is a program run by the U of A Senate to promote and encourage kids from grades 3-9 to consider university as an option for their future. Elementary and Junior High classes attend exciting and interactive sessions on campus for an entire week-long learning experience. We are looking for enthusiastic volunteers to help out in the classroom and work with students to engage them in programming and make them feel welcome at the U of A. We have volunteer shifts between 9:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. weekdays on North Campus.
