Tuesday, October 8

If you have never participated in SSD you are in for a treat. The day is designed as a conference to teach you skills and connect you to the people that can help you succeed in college and all aspects of life!

This semester we have planned synchronous online sessions at multiple times to help you fit this important day into your life. Additional sessions are asynchronous so you can complete them anytime or do them in short spurts.

What to expect: 

Planning for Student Success Day on Tuesday, October 8th is in full swing. The programming for the day is centered on topics students indicated as concerns this summer. We will have sessions on study skills, planning your college career, making the most of your finances, mental health, and many more. 

Our main point of organization for the day will be through D2L Brightspace.  The course will show up right beside your other course on the main page. On Tuesday, October 1st the course will be open for you to see the 2024 SSD Schedule.
