Purple Possibilities: Come On Home!

Open House 2015Ready for a little more purple in your life? Then plan to attend the All University Open House, and make a special visit to the College of Education’s Bluemont Hall. And don’t forget to bring future Wildcats!

Saturday, April 11, is the All University Open House. Visit the various buildings on campus—including your College of Education—from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. We’ll have a festival atmosphere at the COE with plenty of family-friendly events, and we’d love to have you be a part of it.

Here’s a list of the college’s events, with the theme of “Unfold Your Future” Around the Globe! Also at that time, you’ll be able to order a 50th anniversary COE T-shirt to show your COE Wildcat pride!

And, let’s face it—it’s just a great excuse to come back to Manhattan, run into some old friends, and check in with your favorite college on campus!
