ATTENTION FIRST-YEAR, OFF-CAMPUS STUDENTS!!!
Join us for the 6th Annual My Definition Leadership Retreat!
My Definition (or MyDef, for short) is a great way for incoming off-campus first-year students to get to know each other, the college and the St. George campus – all before the official school year starts! It also gives students an opportunity to meet and interact with upper-year students who can share their experiences and give them all sorts of advice on how to balance academics, fun, and involvement while living off-campus. In addition, the retreat provides a chance to learn about student involvement and leadership, which can ultimately help students on how to become effective leaders in university and throughout their lives.
The retreat runs from Saturday, August 7th to Sunday, Augusty 8th. Registration costs $30 and this fee includes all the food for the weekend (from Saturday’s breakfast to Sunday’s lunch) as well as an overnight’s accommodation in one of UC’s residences.
