Praising God in dance, the trio was part of the Aug. 30 kick start to UDIM’s academic year. UDIM, University of Dayton Interde- nominational Ministry, is part of Campus Ministry. The University of Dayton has a tradition of providing opportunities for Protestant students to gather and worship. Starting as a part-time collaboration be- tween Campus Ministry and the Office of Diverse Student Populations, pastoral ser- vices were provided by an African Amer- ican pastor. Approximately twelve years ago, this grew to a full-time position in Campus Ministry. The University of Dayton Campus Ministry website described UDIM as UDIM gives Protestant students the opportunity to freely practice their own worship.

Photo by: Katy Kol"an ~~ A-Per~f!J'a by Caroline Quinter Orientation was one of the most anticipated weekends for the University of Dayton first-year students. The millions of packets, mountains of rugs, and anticipation of meeting one's new roommate can be a bit overwhelming for the newest members of the Flyer Faithful. Despite these daunting realities, excitement could be seen on the face of every first-year student that crowded into the residence halls. On August 19'h, the big move-in weekend finally arrived for the first-year students. It's safe to say that the weekend would not have gone off as smoothly if it weren't for the infamous Blue Crew, a group of helpful upperclassmen that assists first-year students and their parents during move-in every year. As usual, the Blue Crew also planned guest speakers, social gatherings, and other events for the first-year students.
