A NEW ACADEMIC YEAR AUGUST

Greyhound Welcome

We celebrate a new school year each fall during Dawg Days, our new student orientation. Dawg Days is a series of programs and events designed to help new Greyhounds prepare for college life, in and out of the classroom.

Dawg Days student leaders guide new students through a fun-fi lled weekend of academic and entertainment programs. Whether new Greyhounds are getting their computer accounts, learning the fi ght song or making new friends at the social mixers, Dawg Days is guaranteed to be a fun time for all!

If your Greyhound tells you that they are feeling lonely, encourage them to attend the Dawg Days events. The schedule is online at enmu.edu/DawgDays.

Campus Safety

ENMU Alert sends text messages and emails to notify the University community when there are any emergencies or weather closures. You and your Greyhound can register at enmu.edu/Alert. You can add several contact numbers and emails, including family members.

Greyhound Employment

ENMU employs Greyhounds all over campus. Greyhounds who wish to work on campus need to make sure they have a current Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) on fi le with our Offi ce of Fi nancial Aid and attend our job fairs to fi nd part-time work as soon as the semester begins (enmu.edu/CareerEvents). Greyhounds can fi nd current job openings and information about how to apply at enmu.edu/StudentJobs.

Ask your Greyhound to closely look over their ENMU account statement before paying or setting up a payment plan. Is the meal plan selection correct? Does the class schedule look like it has the right classes?

If hired, Greyhounds need to bring a valid driver's license (or state-issued identifi cation card) and their Social Security card to the Offi ce of Human Resources, Administration Building (ADM), Room 105, to confi rm their identity (if they have a passport, they would only need to bring that). Please remember your Greyhound needs to provide original documents as copies will not be accepted.
