Seeking NCCU First-Year Bloggers, 2010-2011

Dear New Eagles:

Four first-year students will be chosen to be the 2010 NCCU First-Year Bloggers for 2010-2011. We are looking for new students who are willing to share the story of their "first-year experience" through blogging and vlogging!

To be considered, complete the application linked below, and the NCCU Office of Orientation and FYE will be in touch soon regarding the interview process.

The NCCU FIRST-YEAR BLOGGER ONLINE APPLICATION IS LINKED HERE.

Applications will be reviewed as they are received, and 4 bloggers will be chosen on a rolling basis. Bloggers will be chosen based on their displayed potential to sustain creative and innovative blogs throughout the 2010-2011 academic year.

The 2009-2010 year was the inaugural year NCCU had first-year bloggers, and they were very popular with incoming students and parents! Now, YOU have the opportunity to reach out and tell the story of YOUR first-year experience to other prospective Eagles.

For an idea about how other UNC schools are blogging, check these out:

The Office of Orientation and First-Year Experience is registered with the Academic Community Service Learning Program, and you can acquire your required service hours by being chosen for this project.

We look forward to hearing from you soon!

In Truth and Service,
NCCU Orientation and First-Year Experience
