The fall semester is upon us and students will arrive on Northwestern State University’s campus for Move-In Day Saturday, Aug. 20.

It’s one of the most exciting days for new students and their families. Move-in will be held from 7 a.m. – 1 p.m. The Natchitoches community is encouraged to come out and contribute towards these new students’ move-in experience. Community participation will provide the perfect opportunity for students to make connections with civic groups, service organizations, churches, financial institutions, restaurants and area businesses.

It’s also an opportunity for those who volunteer to share information on services and resources with the new students and their families. NSU encourages volunteers to pass out water, popsicles, energy snacks and information about the services each group provides. It is also encouraged to show Demon pride by wearing NSU t-shirts. Volunteers are needed to cover the following shifts:

7-9 a.m.
8-10 a.m.
9-11 a.m.
10 a.m. – 12 p.m.
11 a.m. – 1 p.m.
