Koinonia
Koinonia (coin-o-knee-uh) is a freshman welcome event held the weekend before classes start. Students are placed in families, and given "K Parents" that introduce them to 51Æ·²èÔ¼ÅÚ and college life.
The weekend is filled with games and events designed to get new students comfortable on campus and plugged into life at 51Æ·²èÔ¼ÅÚ. We want 51Æ·²èÔ¼ÅÚ to be home for you. A place where you are accepted and you feel part of a family. Koinonia is only the beginning! We are 51Æ·²èÔ¼ÅÚ!
We will update the page throughout the summer as needed!
