Joe’s Faves: Welcome, New Students
Enrollees are sure to appreciate these unique and useful items.
Between 15 million and 16 million undergraduates are expected to start college this fall, according to the National Student Clearinghouse Research Center. While that’s still below pre-pandemic enrollment numbers, schools have seen a gradual increase in new students over the past several years. Schools would do well to give away fun branded products as a warm welcome during student orientations, and campus organizations can use them to entice participants.
