Fall Quarter
Welcome Week
"Hi. What's your name? Where are you from? What building do you live in? What's your major?" These are the typical questions you should be prepared to answer all week as new students meet and mingle. For five days the campus is busy everywhere you go as students get settled into their new life. Social events such as the annual Ice Cream Social, Smores at the Shores, Welcome Week dance, athletic events and building dinners are held throughout the week so students can meet new people and begin to develop lifelong friendships. The student org fair will help you find ways to get involved on campus while academic advising and various academic departments hold workshops throughout the week to help students get started on the right track academically. It's a time to meet, mingle and maybe even hit the beach with some new friends to enjoy the San Diego sunshine!
UnOlympics
UCSD wouldn't be the same without a little friendly college competition at the UnOlympics. Every year students from all six colleges come together on RIMAC field for some fun and quirky competition as they contend for the coveted Golden Shoe - not to mention bragging rights for the year! Check out how ERC took home the Golden Shoe and where it's Golden Footprints are at this week!
Fall Leadership Retreat
The Annual Fall Leadership Retreat is a time for student organizations, Resident Advisors and Student Council members to come together to develop their skills as leaders as they work to improve student life at ERC. New students also join in as they look to become the next generation of student leaders on campus. The Fall Leadership Retreat gives new students the opportunity to learn more about ERC organizations and leadership opportunities, meet staff members and develop lasting relationships with current students.
Halloween Haunted House
Each year Middle Earth Lounge becomes a haunted house for students and visiting trick-or-treaters.
Fall Ball
Volleyball anyone? Fall Ball is our annual volleyball competition hosted by UCSD Recreation at RIMAC. You can form your own team or ask your Resident Advisor if your building will be forming a team. Whether you're a beginner, a pro or just a cheerleader for your friends, you're sure to have fun!
