Do I need to RSVP?
You do not need to RSVP, simply come in when you arrive.

Is attendance/participation mandatory for FIRE students​?
No, the FIRE Welcome Event is an opportunity for FIRE Semester 1 students to learn about all the FIRE streams and meet FIRE faculty and leadership. This event will launch the FIRE Stream Preferencing process.

Is there a dress code?
Participants are not required to dress up for the occasion.  If you have a FIRE t-shirt, though, consider wearing it to the event.
 
Who do I contact to request a reasonable accommodation?
FIRE is committed to creating an inclusive and accessible event. If you need a reasonable accommodation, please contact Ashley Harper at aharper9@umd.edu. All requests must be made by September 2. We will attempt to implement late requests but cannot guarantee they will be met.
