Welcome Week
Welcome to Sinclair College — thank you for “Joining Us”!
Whether you are joining us for the first time or you are a returning student, we are confident that you are started on a solid foundation to your future. Our primary goal for this year’s Welcome Week is to foster a stronger sense of purpose and inclusion among students, faculty, and staff.
It is important for you to feel a sense of belonging and move forward with confidence knowing that you have the ability and support to do collegiate work. Over these two weeks, we will highlight a variety of activities that will showcase our many resources that can help you succeed. With that, we invite you to enjoy all of these special events. Please know that we look forward to seeing you in The Big Room soon.
