UCRC Updates

Here are just some updates for our UCRC students:

Ready to order your books for the Fall 2012 semester? All UCRC students can now order their books online @ www.bhsubookstore.com and select the "Ship to UCRC now." You can then pick-up your ordered books at the University Center Bookstore! Don't want to pre-order your books? Stop in the UCRC Bookstore beginning August 20 to pick up your UCRC books then!

New Student Orientation will be held on Wednesday, August 22nd starting at 5:00 pm.  If you are a veteran, we have a session starting at 4:30 pm to help explain the services we have available as well as the resources out there for veteran students!  We are asking students to pre-register for orientation as a way of knowing how many people will be there and more importantly, how much food to order!  To register for orientation, click HERE.

BHSU will be holding a New Student Registration day on Friday, August 17th beginning at 1 pm.  If you are a new BHSU student and need to get registered for fall classes, register now to attend.  For more information and a link to the registration form, click HERE.

Finally, for your entertainment for the day, check out this Twitter feed by "Fake Jim Abbott," The Official(ly fake parody) account of the University of South Dakota's 17th President, James W. Abbott.  It is quite humorous and a good way to kill a few minutes when you really need a study break!
