Welcome Wildcats to the 2017-2018 academic year! For many, the beginning of a semester brings excitement and eagerness to start something new. On June 1, Dr. Robert C. Robbins assumed his position as the 22nd president of the University of Arizona. UA also welcomed renowned linguist and social critic, Noam Chomsky, to the faculty in the College of Social and Behavioral Sciences. On the first day of classes, August 21, roughly 40K students not only started a new semester, but also witnessed a rare solar eclipse. On a slightly smaller scale, the WRRC welcomes new and returning students for another great semester.
