Established in fall 2021, this initiative will spread across the first two weeks of the fall semester. Weeks of Welcome (WOW) will combine academic, educational, developmental, and social programming to provide a solid foundation for new and returning students as they transition to Rice University.

The following goals and objectives will be met throughout the weeks' events:

• Foster relationships between students and the broader Rice community.

• Promote belonging and inclusivity for new and returning students.

• Provide engaging events for students as they adjust to college life at Rice University.

• To connect new and returning Rice students with campus resources and student life
