Thursday was Freshman Move-In Day at the University of Wyoming.  New students arrived en masse to move all manner of furniture and personal belongings into every dormitory, except for White Hall, which is closed for remodeling.

Parking in the dormitory parking lots have thirty-minute limits during the move-in and are only available to arriving residents.

Various on campus organizations are donating time and efforts to aiding those moving in.  The UW Residence Hall Association is providing free refreshments and several Greek organizations, among others, are donating muscle helping the Freshmen carry belongings to their room.  Incoming residents can also, with an ID card, borrow shopping carts, laundry carts, and wheel dollies to make the move go a little smoother.

Traffic near campus was getting backed-up at times Thursday.  Laramie residents might want to consider using alternate routes away from the residence halls during the next few days, if time is a factor in your drive.
