<h3>New Student Orientation</h3>
</div>

<p>
New Student Orientations for new ACE students take place twice a year at EDC. The goal of orientations is to get students aquainted with their new surroundings and prepare them for what lies ahead. Current students are in a fantastic position to help out because they know and understand what it's like to be an ACE student. It also provides new people who may be nervous with a friendly face to make their first little while at school easier.
</p>
<p>
There are lots of ways to help welcome new students to the department:
<ul>
<li class="task">Conduct group tours of the campus, making sure students know how to find the important things:</li>
<ul>
<li>Library</li>
<li>Bookstore</li>
<li>Student services</li>
<li>Student support services (accomodations, tutoring, counseling, etc)</li>
<li>The Mercantile</li>
<li>Fitness centre</li>
<li>Other places of interest and/or importance</li>
</ul>
<p>We provide a script and a map to the tour guides so you don't have to worry about creating the tour yourself.</p>
<li class="task">Assist students in installing their VM</li>
<ul>
<li>For many students, this might be the first time they've installed a VM.</li>
</ul>
<li class="task">Give the day in a life of a student workshop</li>
<p>Sessions are 45 minutes long. Students are free to come up with their own content. Topics that have worked well in the past:</p>
<ul>
<li>Work/Life/School balance</li>
<li>Asking for help</li>
<li>Connecting with instructors and peers</li>
<li>Favourite teachers</li>
<li>What to expect for certain classes</li>
<li>Tips & Tricks for making homework/projects easier</li>
</ul>
<li class="task">Help facilitate the traditional orientation scavenger hunt</li>
<p>They do it to learn how to navigate the school. They do it for the sweet RRC ACE department swag. But most of all, they do it for glory.</p>
<ul>
<li>Keep time</li>
<li>Tally the scores</li>
<li>Help out students who might be stuck</li>
</ul>
<li class="task">Hang out at the Bits & Bytes table and talk to people during club week</li>
<ul>
<li>Tell people about your experience with Bits & Bytes</li>
<li>Make sure people know about upcoming events of interest</li>
</ul>
</ul>
</p>
<p>
New Student Orientations happen August and January. To take part in the next one, email us (info [at] bitsandbytesassociation [dot] ca) and let us know what program/term you're in. Letting us know if you've done IBIT is also helpful.
