启动强程序
提供了一个 早开始走向成功 去年秋天为16名一年级学生准备的. Start Strong向学生介绍大学
campus life while diving deeper into some of the common 过渡 挑战 experienced
by 第一年 students, " It is like the short, safe version of the beginning of the
第一年." Students gained a more in-depth understanding of what to expect in college
and what would be expected of them, completed a formal assessment of their study habits/skills
and heard tips from student leaders on how to balance school with other demands.
2023秋季启动强计划
尽早开始你的成功. Students will be expected to complete a series of self-paced modules built in Canvas
整个学期的前八周. 每周一次的亲自“路边”检查站

挑战. This metaphorical road trip gives students an entirely different way to
看大学经历. 所以，拿起你的背包，跳上车，摇下车窗.
