Consider signing up to serve as a guest bartender in the Viking Room. You can join the Class of 2017 nearly any Wednesday night of the academic year from 9 to 11 p.m. It’s late for some of us, but oh so fun, and students REALLY get into interacting with faculty and staff! You can sign up as individuals, pairs or as a department.

Complete a short registration form to sign up.

Contact Paris Wicker, associate dean of students for campus programs and senior class advisor, at paris.d.wicker@lawrence.edu or 920-832-7369 with any questions.

Voyager password change

As of Jan. 18, faculty, staff and students now use their Lawrence network/email username and password to log in to Voyager. This means you will no longer have two passwords to remember—just one that will allow you to log in to email, Voyager, campus computers and Lawrence Wi-Fi.

Please contact the Technology Services helpdesk at 920-832-6570 or helpdesk@lawrence.edu with any questions.
