The 2021 New Griff Orientation Team Welcomes New Griffs
The 2021 New Griff Orientation program (NGO) was held from August 26 to 29. Incoming new and transfer students attended mandatory informational sessions on how to be a successful Canisius student, and enjoyed a variety of fun bonding activities designed to acclimate them to life as a Griff. Throughout New Griff Orientation, 38 of our undergraduate students served as exemplary Orientation Leaders, Senior Orientation Leaders, and Lead Orientation Leaders. In addition to the NGO Team, Graduate Assistants from various Student Affairs offices also helped in ensuring New Griff Orientation to be a welcome transitional experience for all incoming new students.
