Volunteers needed to help with SIU Day on Sept. 23

More than 750 high school students could soon get their first experience of Saluki Spirit. This month, faculty and staff will welcome students from across the region to campus to explore what SIU Carbondale has to offer, and to discover where college can take them.

Volunteers are still needed for SIU Day on Sept. 23 to assist with a variety of activities as students take part in academic breakout sessions and tour the campus. The volunteer roles include greeting, ushering and leading groups to breakout sessions in the morning and early afternoon. All students begin their day in the Student Center Ballrooms.

Volunteers should sign up online by Sept. 17. Volunteers are encouraged to choose areas they feel most comfortable and receive training information via email prior to their shift and on-site.
