(Jan. 22, 2019) -- The second week of spring classes at UTSA is also an opportunity for Roadrunners to get involved and give back to the community during the second half of Roadrunner Days: Spring Edition.
Traditionally, Roadrunner Days are held in August, at the beginning of the fall semester. They are designed to prepare Roadrunners for the new academic year and help connect them to the UTSA community.
Now, students will get the same opportunity at the start of the spring semester. During Spring Roadrunner Days, which runs through Jan. 26, students can explore activities that reinforce student success, student involvement and community service. This week’s events focus on student involvement and community service.
