What is Comet's Crew?
Comet’s Crew are student leaders who want to welcome you to campus! These students help you transition to campus life by introducing you to resources and leading you through events and activities throughout the weekend. They will also meet with you in a small group to answer questions and allow you to get-to-know your classmates.
