Walkabout is an annual volunteer program at Miami University where volunteers visit off-campus student housing at the beginning of fall semester to welcome students and provide information about living in Oxford. The program aims to raise student awareness of the broader community and positively impact behavior through direct interaction. Volunteers are trained and given materials to distribute including information on parking rules, litter laws, safety, and community resources. They are instructed to introduce themselves, explain the purpose of Walkabout, discuss important points about living in Oxford, and answer any student questions.
