University Housing seeks your help in welcoming the newest class of Razorbacks to Fayetteville.  

Volunteers are needed on Wednesday, Aug. 9, and Saturday, Aug. 12. 

Every member of the U of A and the Fayetteville community is invited to join, and there are opportunities for everyone to help.  

Sign up today as an individual or group using GivePulse.   

The final day to register is Tuesday, Aug. 1. 

Each day will have multiple shifts, and you need to complete a separate sign up for each shift. 

Why Volunteer? 

Move-In is a fun event that brings faculty, staff, registered student organizations and the community together. We depend on the welcoming attitude and smiling faces of volunteers during Move-In.  

Each year, students and their families rave about our fantastic volunteers and the welcoming atmosphere of the U of A.  

We look forward to a great beginning for our newest Razorbacks and hope you will join us during the Move-In experience.
