Hello Commuters!
Our commuter team is putting together some cool stuff based off your feedback to the Commuter Life Needs Assessment survey we sent out!

Below is a list of available times that the commuter reps will be in the FoxHole to meet with whoever is wanting to join them. This is an intentional space for the reps to get to know and connect with you, as well as space for commuters to get connected with each other on a consistent basis. If you are interested in joining one of these groups, feel free to go to the FoxHole at a time below that you are available!
Here is when the groups are taking place:
- Brianna: Monday at 4 p.m.
- Jay: Tuesdays at 2 p.m.
- Ashlee: Tuesday at 3 p.m.
- Whitne: Thursday at 11 a.m.
- Bailey: Wednesday at 3 p.m.
- Ben: Friday at 4 p.m.
Whatever happens in the hour is up to your groups! We hope that this can be a time for you to build community with one another. We hope to see you there!
