Welcome to this important year at Bates.

As sophomores you are in the full swing of college life.  The sophomore year is a time of decisions, opportunities, and change.  It’s the year you move into ever more challenging courses. It’s the year you declare your Major, Minor and General Education Concentrations.  It’s the year you decide whether you would like to study abroad and where.  It’s a time you may apply for internships or jobs and the year many of you assume leadership positions as JAs, PALG leaders, writing assistants, in campus organizations, or in athletics.

The Sophomore Hub is designed to help you navigate some of the important developments of this year.
