Blues Week Leaders

You and your classmates will be assigned to a Blues Week Leader, who will serve as a guide and resource for you during the Blues Week programs. Your leader will review the entire schedule of events with you and host a check-in session for you to get to know your group members and exchange resources. Your leader will be there to help you get acclimated to The W, so don't hesitate to ask them any questions you have.
