Hey, Bear Fam! Sarah Scribner, APAP's Coordinator of Events & Volunteers and fellow WashU alum here!

How would YOU like to use the WashU APAP Facebook page? Please share your thoughts, feel free to add a comment, or reach out to us directly at [email protected]. Until we meet again!

This 60 second video does a great job of showing and telling what campus is looking like these days! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O5TVlwome5w&feature=youtu.be

Consider hiring a WashU student for an internship or full-time position through the Hire-a-Bear Program. You can contribute to the education of a WashU student, and our students, in turn, can help advance your organization’s goals.

Three new, spacious semi-permanent walled tents have been erected on campus. Each of them has ample seating capacity with floors, self-sustaining power, air conditioning and heat and an air filtration system.

Things are looking a little different on campus these days. The pews in Graham Chapel have been replaced with study pods!

The students are back on campus and ready to begin classes next Monday! https://source.wustl.edu//large-diverse-and-talented-clas/
