Reaching Out to Students
Picnic with the President
Dr. Bailey says one of his greatest joys of being president is spending time with the students – looking them in the eye and learning where they are from, what they are studying and where they see themselves after graduation.
“Picnic with the President” is a new tradition started by Dr. Bailey. Held annually at the beginning of the fall semester, “Picnic with the President” gives students an opportunity to meet the President and his leadership team, and for them to meet the students. They put on their aprons and serve hot dogs or hamburgers, chips and cool drinks to the long lines of students.
