Volunteering will be concentrated in the Women\u2019s Terrace (Brown, Deaton, Hefley and Stewart halls), and McClure said the most help is needed from 7:30 a.m. to noon. Free T-shirts and water will be provided to all volunteers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt shows just how supportive this community is for university students, and the students get really excited about [it],\u201d McClure said, adding that volunteering for move in has become a tradition for many people in the community.<\/p>\n<p>Leslie Banahan, assistant vice chancellor for student affairs, said she hopes fellow UM faculty and staff members also will feel that sense of excitement from the incoming students.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c[The volunteers] are playing an important part in this important journey in higher education,\u201d Banahan said. \u201cObviously, a lot of work goes into it, but seeing that enthusiasm in a freshman\u2019s eyes just makes it all worth it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Student organizations also are invited to volunteer, and community service hours are available for groups and individuals.
