Each summer, thousands of excited incoming freshmen, transfer and international students eagerly look forward to California State University, Northridge’s New Student Orientation. At this year’s event, about 5,000 freshmen were welcomed to campus during orientations between July 29 and Aug. 21.
For most of the students, the daylong session included a welcome by CSUN President Dianne F. Harrison, a guided tour of the campus with new student orientation leaders, group/team building exercises work through various group exercises and a service fair at the Matador Bookstore Complex.
