Welcome Winter 2015
Welcome to our incoming and returning students! I'm sure you're all as excited to be back as we are ;)
Student groups Winter 2015
As part of student orientation, a brochure detailing the student groups at MLIS UWO was created and distributed. It has contact info for the various MLIS and student group pages, so it's a handy guide for those of you looking to get involved this term.
New student resources
Most of us remember well what it was like to be a new student (seeing as it was just last term for many of us...), so we'd like to assure new students that there are plenty of resources available to them. The main resource we'd suggest is your fellow students -- it's amazing what people pick up by word of mouth! Here are some other useful websites to remember:
FIMS Intranet
http://intra.fims.uwo.ca/ (student login required)
Graduate Resource Center (GRC)
MLIS Western University Facebook
Free beverages and snacks in the Grad Lounge
To kick off the start of term, MLIS Student Council invites you to stop by the Grad Lounge over lunch the week of Jan 12-16 for coffee, tea, and snacks. We're hoping this will provide different FIMS programs the opportunity to interact and help welcome new term MLIS students.
This event will be running all week during the lunch break (12:00-1:30); the one exception is Tuesday, which will start at 12:30 due to a scheduling conflict. Kirstyn (kseanor@uwo.ca) is the overenthusiastic, blue-haired person leading this event, so feel free to send any questions their way.
