Abstract
In order to make adjustments that will help better meet the needs of new students, orientation directors must constantly evaluate their programs. The decisions that are made should be individualized to each individual college or university and the type of students it enrolls. Student populations are changing, and orientation staffs need to be aware of these changes and adjust their programs accordingly. This article explores the history, trends, purpose, participants, and goals of orientation programs.Metrics
