The Student Centers and the Office of College Programming and Orientation (CPO) present you with a new University of Chicago tradition – the Postcard Project! Designed as a paper time capsule and a memento of your first year at the University, we are asking for your participation.
At the end of your senior year, you will receive a hard copy of your postcard to look back on. From all of us at the offices of the Students Centers and College Programming and Orientation, we wish you a great school year and we look forward to meeting you!
The deadline to participate is Friday, October 16, 2022 at 11:59pm Central Time.
The Participation period for the Postcard Project 2022 has finished.
