Welcome Aboard:
Alumni and students greet the class of 2005
This summer generous alumni and current Muhlenberg students and their families hosted get-togethers in several parts of the country for the incoming class of 2005 through the Muhlenberg "Welcome Aboard" program.
At these gatherings, first-year students and their parents were treated to food and fellowship and given the opportunity to meet local families. We are pleased to report that this summer's "welcome" events drew a record-breaking attendance of 355 first-year students.
