Find where you fit
Your FlightPath is more than just your academic journey; it’s your entire experience. It’s our way of making sure that every opportunity available is meaningful and relevant to you.

As a Hawk, you’ll discover that making friends comes naturally, and it’s easy to feel at home.
Where Hawks Gather
Between and after classes, you'll find other Hawks in places like Dewar Union, The Commons, and Stack's Lounge or Laura's lounge for a quick bite, trivia, or even stand-up comedy and poetry readings.
