2016-2017 Demographics
The Oglesby Union hosts many programs throughout the academic year. Such programs include the following: Seminole Sensation Week, Friday Night Bites, Homecoming, Haunted Harvest, and Spring Fling. Most of these events are provided to students free of charge (others have a small fee) and are meant to engage them in fun and safe alternatives that revolve around school spirit. These events are held at locations that students are familiar with or can easily travel to such as the Oglesby Union, other locations on-campus, or off-campus locations that are near campus, such as the Leon County Civic Center. The Oglesby Union Student Activities Center takes the lead in the planning and promotion of these events. In collaboration with the Student Activities Center, these events and programs are co-sponsored by other departments of the university, such as the Office of the Provost, New Student and Family Programs, Campus Recreation, University Housing, Center for Leadership and Social Change, Advising First, Greek Life, University Health Services, the Student Alumni Association, and the Student Government Association. The purpose of this report is to demonstrate the students that our events and programs have attracted.
