The Brock University Students' Union Executives Welcomes Students during SMART Start 2008


St. Catharines ON, June 26, 2008: The Brock University Students’ Union(BUSU) Executive team began welcoming new students to Brock University on June 23, 2008 in conjunction with Brock’s SMART (Students Making a Real Transition) Start program. Soon to be 1st year students flock to the Brock campus each day until August 8, 2008. “It’s great to see the groups of 30 to 60 students walk through our building twice a day looking excited and kind of scared to start in September, because that is exactly what I was like going into my first year,” said Jody Thomas, BUSU President.


SMART Start is a summer program run by Brock University that aids in the transition of student from high School to University life at Brock. While at SMART Start, students get acquainted with a number of the services and programs offered at Brock University and BUSU. The BUSU Executive team will be delivering two presentations a day until the end of SMART Start focusing on the services, programs, structure and events BUSU offers its members. “I remember going to my SMART Start presentation from BUSU. I was sitting there and thinking this school seems just right for me and I want to be the President of this organization one day.’ SMART Start is when I first decided to get involved in Brock and BUSU, and I’m glad I did because look where I am now.” Thomas recalled.
