Wilson Showcase of Talent

The highlight of the Premiere Weekend is the Wilson Showcase in Saturday evening. Orchesis Club, Drama Club and Choir will perform at the Showcase.

Prof. of Dance, Paula Kellinger, the advisor of Orchesis, thinks that, "The Showcase is a wonderful way to introduce visiting students to the activities and talents of current students. I hope seeing Wilson students perform will contribute to their decision to come to Wilson."

You can help

Current students can also contribute to Premiere Weekend. In addition to the Wilson College tour guides who will provide assistance as event hosts, other students are invited to participate on student panels as well as to represent their clubs during the "fast pass sessions." Eight campus clubs, including WCGA, Campus Activity Board (CAB), Yearbook, Orchesis, Riding Teams, Honors Program, and Recreation/Recreational Facilities will participate in the sessions. They will explain their club activities and answer questions from the visiting students. Besides, the Wilson Showcase is also open to current students.
