Bloomsburg University names roster of "H.O.W.L.s" for the 2021-2022 academic year.
Bloomsburg University recently released their 2020-2021 roster of Husky Orientation & Welcome Leaders (H.O.W.Ls.) for the 2021-2022 academic year. Often the first point of contact for incoming students and their families, H.O.W.Ls. are highly trained students who model and assist in a healthy transition to college life for fellow students. H.O.W.Ls. provide campus tours for prospective and new students and their families, facilitate the transition to college for small groups of new students, and serve as reliable sources of university information in an often-overwhelming time in a student's academic career. "H.O.W.Ls. are critical to the smooth transition to college for new students," explained Kristin Austin, Bloomsburg University Assistant Director for New Student and Family Orientation. "They are their 'go to' mentors, leaders, and role models and help with everything from homesickness and roommate adjustment to where to get the best slice of pizza downtown."
