Dating back to the fall of 2004, Welcome Week began as a joint endeavor between the Student Government Association and the former Office of Student Activities. The event takes place during the first week of class each fall and spring semester and features a multitude of diverse activities for students to make new friends, connect with the campus, and enjoy themselves. Now coordinated by the Office of Student Leadership & Involvement, and known as Stampede Week, the celebration is a collaborative effort, jointly implemented by several offices in the Division of Student Affairs, as well as various registered student organizations. Stampede Week activities range from outdoor movies, special entertainers, crafts, novelties, cookouts, and much more.
