Bearcats Bound Orientation is the University of Cincinnati's official welcome to first-year students.

This summer the university welcomed 7,000 Bearcat families to campus for a crash course in all things UC, from campus tours and "Down the Drive," to sessions on student life, financial aid and UC housing, and more.

Photographer Andrew Higley captured some of the fun as generations of Bearcats explored all UC has to offer.
