CELINA, OH – Wright State University – Lake Campus kicked off Fall Semester on Monday, August 27, 2018 with its highest enrollment to date. Staff, faculty, and student employees welcomed the record-breaking Lakers into the academic year with a variety of free activities.

  • T-Shirt Giveaway: On Tuesday, September 4, the first 400 students to stop by the Dwyer Hall entrance received a free t-shirt adorned with the Wright State Lake Campus logo.
  • Campus-Community Connection Fair: On Wednesday, September 12, more than 30 campus groups and community businesses/organizations set up custom booths on the front lawn. This networking event allowed Lakers to learn about local opportunities for part-time and full-time employment, internships-co/ops, volunteer opportunities, services/resources, and products. Students were able to pick up informational handouts, and snag free giveaways such as coffee/cider, candy, cookies, sunglasses, hand sanitizer, car phone chargers, bracelets, pens, highlighters, cups, bags, and much more.
