Comments on: Willkommen, Bienvenue, Welcome…to Spring Semester http://calstuff.blogsome.com/2007/01/06/willkommen-bienvenue-welcometo-spring-semester/ News and Observations about the University of California, Berkeley.

Having welcome week events when all students definitely must have returned to Berkeley at least gives the opportunity for large turnouts at programs and events, as we see in the Fall.

And the res halls DO put on a Spring welcome week, but it is not as grandiose as the one ASUC is planning. Also, events in the res halls during Spring welcome week will not see the massive crowds and social atmosphere as Fall welcome week does, but this new ASUC one likely will. That's improvement.

The ASUC is spending its time and resources doing something the university already does so a couple of people can put their names all over campus. Whoopdiedoo. Great.

Having these welcome week activities on the week following the official welcome week is a great idea, as the events will draw in bigger crowds and allow for that crucial social atmosphere.
