Be an MU Orientation Leader

Eat. Sleep. Lead. Repeat.

One of the best student employment roles on campus is serving as an Orientation Leader (OL). OLs greet new students and acclimate them to campus, social life and academics at MU. For many incoming students, their OL is the first friend they make in college. 

If you have a passion for Millersville University and enjoy serving others, being an Orientation leader for the upcoming year might be for you.

What does an OL do?

Orientation is about preparing new students for the rigors of the collegiate experience.

This encompasses both academic and social preparation. OLs help students connect through getting-to-know-you activities and just hanging out.

You’ll lead students to sessions, identify resources, services, and practices that contribute to student success, and help familiarize students with campus resources and culture.
