CSUN Navigators Wanted - Be a Part of Welcoming New and Returning Students
CSUN Navigators are staff and faculty that welcome our students during the first two days of the fall semester, answering questions and helping students find their way (navigate) to classes and other locations.
Fall 2019 marks the eighth year for the CSUN Navigators! With the expectation of a large number of new students, we will need a lot of volunteers to assist us with this well received program. Even if you know very little about the campus, we will give you all the tools you need to be a great Navigator. This is a great opportunity to interface with our students and a good time to meet and spend some time with colleagues!
Whether you are new to the program or coming back around to volunteer again, all CSUN Navigators need to attend a training session to get updates and instructions.
Participate in the following Doodle Poll to indicate that you will be a Navigator and if you will attend training in Bayramian Hall (BH) 190 on Wednesday, August 14th between 10:00 and 11:00 am, or on Thursday, August 15th between 2:00 and 3:00 pm: https://doodle.com/poll/zy3rin9h82brgkdm.
