The UAB Orientation Leaders assist in the planning, implementation, and evaluation of New Student Orientation. Orientation Leaders play a vital role in helping new students make a smooth transition to their new learning environment. This knowledgeable and spirited group of students is dedicated to helping each student find his/her place in UAB's inclusive community.
An ideal Orientation Leader must have an interest in helping others, a positive outlook toward UAB and university life, a broad base of interests and involvement, an attitude that values teamwork, and a sense of humor.
Orientation Leaders provide a vital service to the entire University Community. After extensive training, Orientation Leaders organize and run activities, conduct small group sessions with new students, and answer questions and concerns from new students and their parents. They must be willing to be flexible, patient, and hard working.
