The Orientation Team is made up of Orientation Coordinators (OCs) and Orientation Leaders (OLs). The OCs are two student coordinators of orientation who plan and implement Orientation Leader training and New Student Orientation. The OLs are divided into groups of four and are responsible for orientation groups. OLs are known for their enthusiasm and commitment to Chestnut Hill College. “Ready for any good work,” they are genuinely dedicated to welcoming new students and making them feel at home at Chestnut Hill. They help to meet the goals of Orientation by providing students with information and resources on a very informed and personal level. OLs will guide new students through their Griffin Day and full New Student Orientation experiences.
