Saturday Academic Showcase
Description
Saturday Academic Showcases are great for students who find it challenging to make it to campus during the week. Explore what it's like to be a Bearcat during a Saturday visit on select dates throughout the year. All students will receive a free t-shirt and students/guests will receive free lunch!
Opportunity for October 10: Experience what it’s like to be part of the Bearcat Marching Band! Visiting students can join the BMB following Visit Day activities to enjoy lunch with current band members, participate in pre-game activities, and sit with the band during the Bearcat football game. It’s a great opportunity to meet current students, experience the energy of game day, and get a firsthand look at what being part of the BMB is all about! Please Bring your own instruments for this opportunity!
