7:00AM!
You don’t know how to answer the question asked of you on Panel, but you were called on and everyone is looking at you – what should you do?

A student is expressing that they’re very nervous for their first year writing class because they are “an AWFUL writer.” What resource(s) can you plug to them?

A Coord/Prostaff is floating around during morning duties and sees you on your phone. What is going to happen?
You will receive a strike
A family approaches you with questions about Fraternity and Sorority Life. The mom says, "I don't want my little boy to be hazed. Do frats at Michigan haze?" How would you answer this?
Emphasize that the university has a very strict anti-hazing policy that all affiliated sororities and fraternities must abide by. If there is an instance of hazing it can be reported directly to the Fraternity and Sorority Life Office or anonymously on their website.
You finish up lunch and notice a family is missing from your tour. What do you do?
Don’t freak out! Slack a Coord or Prostaff member and let them know how many people you’re missing. Also send a message in the Campus Day Slack because another tour group may be able to pick them up!

You DO NOT have to share your personal information. You can say that it is different for every student and that you are not comfortable sharing. If they keep heckling you, slack a Coord or Prostaff
What are the key things you should talk about at your Academic Stop?
The plethora of resources available to help with academics, advising, study abroad, class size, and YOUR personal experiences

The Dean of Students Office! They can help you with all situations and point you to specific offices that can provide more in depth help.
When are you dismissed from morning duties?
When a Coord or Prostaff tells you in person or via Slack that you are released, not a definitive time
At lunch a student asks "I hear North Campus sucks. How do I ensure I won't live there?" How would you respond?
Emphasize the fact that you will find community no matter where you are placed, how every resource that's on Central is also on North, and talk about how easy the bus system is!
You're out on your tour and notice a protest on the Diag. What should you do?
Try your best to give your tour stop away from it so that guests can still hear and focus on you. Also, send a Slack message to the Campus Day chat so that other groups are aware of it
You have a job interview coming up but you forgot your suit at home. Is there any resource on campus that can help you with this? If yes, what is it?
