Virginia Ambassadors: Days on the Lawn

Days on the Lawn is a series of days held in April giving admitted students and their families the opportunity to visit the University. Prospective students and their families get the chance to mingle with current students, attend a class, tour the University, and eat lunch with a current student. The objective of the event is for admitted students to "get a feel for" U.Va and all it has to offer. What makes the event so successful is the enthusiasm that current student volunteers bring. Unfortunately, it is hard to motivate students to volunteer for Days on the Lawn without some sort of incentive.
