Lakeland College

Aloha and welcome to Lakeland College!

The summer orientation program at Lakeland College aims to welcome and transition newly enrolled students and their families to the Lakeland community over a two-day period.

This year, the orientation planning team is excited to provide an orientation program with a Hawaiian theme. This theme was selected not only for the endless possibilities of fun but also for the emphasis on the word "aloha," which means both "hello" and "goodbye" in English. The orientation planning team is very excited to offer new students a memorable experience, which prepares them for college life at Lakeland!
