Facilities Management in Action-Wildcat Welcome 2015 Once again FM stepped up to the plate and helped the University welcome new students. Beginning August 15th and over the week of August 17th, FM had over 150 volunteers help Residence Life with the Wildcat Welcome move-in. I want to thank everyone who participated for your friendly and positive demeanors. This was an excellent way for FM to engage our new students with a helping hand. The smile on this parent s face says it all!
