9 Orientation Events You Don't Want to Miss

Ice Cream Social-Junior Move-In Day from 7-9pm-This is the first chance for all the new juniors to get together and socialize. Ice cream is served, there is dancing, and a good time is had by all.
Amazing SMath Race-Sunday, Aug. 12, 2-3pm-Imagine the show "The Amazing Race" taking place on NCSSM's campus. Lots of fun, lots of craziness, and a great way to get familiar with the campus and meet new people.
First Brother-Sister Hall Activity-Sunday Aug. 12, 7-8:15pm-This is the first time we get to go as a hall (juniors and seniors) and hang out with our brother hall, a randomly assigned male hall that we will do activities with throughout the year. There will probably be game playing and silliness, but it is a great chance to work on learning the names of you hall mates.
First Official Happy Half-Sunday Aug. 12, 10-10:30pm-Every weeknight throughout the school year, students gather near the swings on the interior of campus to socialize and say goodnight to their friends before in-building curfew at 10:30pm. Don't miss this longstanding NCSSM tradition. (For those of you wondering, yes, I did go to happy half when I was a student here.)
Convocation-Tuesday Aug. 14, 6:30-8pm-Convocation is NCSSM's formal start to the school year. All students, faculty, and staff dress up and assemble to celebrate the first day of class. There is a dress code, so be sure you bring at least one dressy outfit and appropriate shoes (no flip flops, boots, or sneakers are allowed).
One Act Play-Friday Aug. 17, 8-10pm-Our Drama Board does a fantastic job with all their productions, so I would not miss their first of the year, the One Act Play.
SGA Club Fair-Saturday Aug. 18, 1pm-Take this chance to check out all the different opportunities our clubs on campus offer. There will be something to interest everyone.
T-shirt Signing Dance-Saturday Aug. 18, 9-midnight-At this dance, everyone wears (or carries with them) a white t-shirt and sharpie and meets other students by signing t-shirts. On hall, before this dance, we will have a t-shirt decorating/pre-signing party.
Superstudy-Monday Aug. 20, 8:30-10pm-In the famous works of Matt Boerner, an SLI here at NCSSM, anything with super in the title can't be all bad. This supervised study time will be a welcome chance for juniors to get down to work on all the home work they have accumulated during their first week of classes.
