We have for several years now, by way of our agreement with Campus Publishers, been receiving a publication called the Visitor Guide. This is an advertising paid publication that we use to provide a lot of useful information about UTSA to those who visit the campus.

At this time sales are underway for the upcoming edition of the Visitor Guide. We ask for any support departments can provide and to get the word out. The guide it is a good way to promote services to students and opportunities for students.

The attached Word doc and Media Kit give a good perspective.

The Office of Housing and Residence Life and Campus Living Villages are very excited to kick off the 2011-2012 Academic year in welcoming its newest members of the Roadrunner community to campus. With “Move-In Day” rapidly approaching, Chaparral Village, Laurel Village, Chisholm Hall, and University Oaks would like to request your help in assisting our new students with their arrival to campus.

We are looking for enthusiastic volunteers to bring their biggest Roadrunner Pride and donate their time to help the “On-Campus Roadrunners” move into their new home. This is an opportunity that allows you to meet new students, showcase your organization, and show your pride as a UTSA student, faculty and staff member. Although this is not an opportunity to recruit for your organization, it does provide new students with the access to learn more about campus life and the importance of getting involved at UTSA through your support.

The official move-in dates for Fall 2011 are August 19th and August 20th.

We will need volunteers from 9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. on Friday, August 19th and Saturday, August 20th. The volunteers will be asked to help students and their families move personal items into their rooms and assist with other move-in duties as needed.

If you would like to volunteer, please complete the attached Move-In Volunteer Form and email it to the respective contact person below.

Also, if you are volunteering as a group, please include the total number of volunteers participating from your area.

As always, we appreciate your on-going support and are thrilled to start another school year! Please feel free to forward this email to others within your department, students, and organization/groups you may advise.
