Interested in rethinking the student transition and classroom experience?

Faculty are invited to join us as we develop collaborative opportunities between faculty and Student Success and rethink how we work together to transition students into Shocker Nation.

This work is based on two frameworks:

  • Rethinking Student Transitions: How Community, Participation, and Becoming Can Help Higher Education Deliver on its Promise, by Dallin George Young and Bryce D. Bunting
  • 魅影直播 Success Coach framework - under construction

I, personally, appreciated the information as well. It made me feel more confident in what I know about these services at WSU, to advocate, serve and support students better.
