Quest Team
The Quest Team serves throughout the entire summer as orientation leaders. They're here to walk students through the entire process from getting to know campus to hanging out during QuestWeek.
The 2024 Quest Team
The Quest Team is a group of 30 student leaders who go through a rigorous interview, selection and training process to prepare them to serve new students throughout the entire summer as orientation leaders. The role involves leading and managing groups of 20-60 new students, working closely alongside other Quest Team members on “committees” that are centralized around programming events, and many other miscellaneous tasks to prepare campus and the New Student Orientation programs to welcome new students as best as possible.
Members of the Quest Team play a major role in the development and implementation of Lipscomb University's undergraduate New Student Orientation programs. The position requires hard work and is a serious time commitment; it is also a tremendously rewarding opportunity to help new students maximize their university adjustment and experience. Additionally, this role entails a large amount of physical activity, as New Student Orientation and QuestWeek are fast-paced programs that require many hands to move supplies all across campus to ensure programming runs smoothly and successfully.
