Many assume that college means moving away from home and into a residence hall. The reality of it is that many student choose to live at home and commute to campus. This office also places special emphasis on programming for new students, both residential as well as commuting, with over 100 programs each year specifically aimed at our new students, as well as a student mentor program. Many students find these services to be an important support during their transition into college life. It's not all about the classroom.
Statistics show that an active student is likely to be a successful student.
We want our students to be involved. It's a good habit to develop, and the time to start is freshman year. Through activity fairs, announcements, and invitations, the push to get our students involved begins with orientation and continues throughout their college career.
