CONNECT 08, Belhaven College’s Transfer Student Orientation Experience, is designed to help you as you join the Belhaven College family. Like every family, we have traditions, meaningful names, and interesting people. Not only will you meet many of the students, faculty and staff who make up the Belhaven family, but you will also learn your way around campus and begin to make Belhaven College your home.
The staff in the Office of Student Leadership is responsible for the planning and implementation of CONNECT 08.
Feel free to contact our office if you have questions, 601.968.8990 or email stleadership@belhaven.edu.
We look forward to seeing you on August 16!
Note: You will receive a CONNECT 08 schedule at orientation registration on Saturday, August 16 (Student Center Commons, 9:00a-2:30p). The schedule will include specific details and important information concerning the CONNECT 08.
