Hello students in the Class of 2029 and new transfer students,

This is a friendly reminder that starting with tomorrow’s email about the opening of a new section of your Summer Resources Lyceum Page, all future emails from the Bates First-Year Experience team will only come to your Bates inbox. Please be sure to check your Bates inbox regularly going forward – we plan on emailing you weekly with important information that you need to review prior to arrival on campus. As a reminder, to access your Bates inbox, simply navigate to gmail.com on a web browser or download the Gmail app to your device and login using your Bates credentials. 

If you have not yet claimed your Bates network credentials, please do so by following the instructions in your Admission portal. 

If for some reason you have decided not to join us in the fall after all, please let us know by emailing fye@bates.edu – we’ll remove you from future mailings. Thank you!

Steve Engel, Professor of Politics and Associate Dean of the Faculty 
Kim Trauceniek, Senior Associate Dean of Students
Nick Dressler, Associate Dean of Students for Residence Life and First-Year Experience
Catie Luedee, Associate Director for Outdoor Education and Programs
Luke Allen ‘22, Coordinator of Campus Life Programming and First-Year Experience
