Your orientation trip is guaranteed to be one of your favorite Hendrix memories. We encourage you to explore this site and start thinking about which trips you’d like to submit. We’ll announce the finalized plans in late March. In June, you’ll get to pick your top choices for orientation trips. Trips are placed on a first-come, first served basis, so be sure to get your form in as soon as you’re notified.
On Aug. 21-23, you’ll join approximately 15-25 students, a faculty or staff member and your Peer and Orientation leaders on an adventure of a lifetime. We’ll provide all the meals and activities, but feel free to bring snacks or a little spending money for souvenirs and incidentals.
Here’s the list of trips along with the peer leader to get you pumped about what’s in store for you in August.
