Downtown Troy Welcome Fest

Rensselaer also hosted a "Welcome Festival" on Aug. 23 in Troy's Monument Square. Coordinated by the Office of the First Year Experience and Residence Life, the "communiversity" event helped to familiarize students, faculty, and staff with downtown business and culture. Entertainment was provided by Rensselaer music groups the Rusty Pipes and Rensselyrics, along with the Canada-based Nylons. Freshmen also enjoyed a welcome dinner in Riverfront Park.
