The Phoenix Bookstore and the University Union did a great job welcoming students, too

2014.09-wel-week-winner-webWe highlighted some of the welcome week activities in a photo gallery earlier this week. Here’s a nod to the University Union and The Phoenix Bookstore staff members who were also on the ready and extremely helpful to students and families.

The Bookstore made it “EZ” on 412 new freshmen, and 1,184 total customers who used the pre-filled and free textbook pick-up option. On Thursday, the Bookstore set up a “Family Rest and Recovery Station,” offering free coffee, juice, ice cream, and other treats to families.

By the overwhelming positive comments on Facebook and Twitter, UWGB did a fantastic job providing the “UWGB-friendly” experience we are known for.
