Orientation Team The Avanti Orientation Team is a student service
organization that was first founded on campus in 1975 in order to
help assist the new students at the University of Alabama. Each
member is well acquainted with the university in the academic
programs and in the co-curricular opportunities in order to help
and to provide support in the many challenges of enrolment and to
also help in the welcoming of

starts with a group interview and once they make it past that round
they have an individual interview. The, once the members are
chosen, in order for them to be able to assist in orientation at
the university during the summer, the members must complete all of

organization and to take into account the knowledge they have from
their previous years as members. Orientation is such a big part of
