Transfer: Homecoming and Hanging Out


November was a great month for the Transfer LLC!

First, UWM had their homecoming festivities in the early weeks of November. One of the great activities that took place was an LLC Banner competition. Every LLC was to create a banner that represented their LLC and they would be hung up during Homecoming. The LLC Banner that was voted best would then be taken onto the court at the Men’s Basketball Homecoming Game. This year the Transfer LLC won! A couple of the Transfer LLC residents were selected to take the Banner onto the court during the game and it was a great time. Everyone had a lot of fun making the banner and seeing it represented not just on their floor, but also to the rest of UWM at the game. The banner was a great way to show the many different schools that transfer students come from. This allowed the residents to come out of their rooms and learn about the many different places that other transfer residents have come from, whether that be from UW-Stevens Point, or all the way from West Africa! The transfer residents have also had a great time getting involved with others in the common areas of their halls. In Riverview, many transfer residents come out of their rooms to hang out with others in the common areas. They spend time studying, playing pool, talking, etc. and have also become more comfortable with surrounding resources such as the MCTS Bus system. This resource has allowed them to be able to go out and explore the many great experiences that can be had around the City of Milwaukee.
