Strong Student Campaign: Academic Support Partners to Help Your Students

Strong Student Campaign: Academic Support Partners to Help Your Students Online

Week 5 of the “Be a Strong Student” campaign urges students to “seek academic help.” While this might involve students reaching out to their instructors, faculty are not on their own when it comes to supporting students academically. Yet instructors might not always be aware of the types of resources they can refer their students to. Join us for this session, and learn more about the available support from representatives of the Center for Academic Success and Tutoring (CAST), the Center for Writing Excellence (CWE), the Disability Resource Center (DRC), and University Libraries. Questions welcome!
