DILLARD UNIVERSITY COLLEGES AND THE CFYE PLANNING FOR THE ACADEMICS AFFAIRS COMPONENT OF S.O.A.R.


Greetings,

Please join me on Thursday, May 17, for a luncheon meeting to plan for the Colleges/Academic Affairs /CFYE’s interactive activities for SOAR 2011. Perhaps a good name for our interactive activities could be ‘SOAR TO SOAR’ (STUDENTS ORGANIZING ACADEMIC RESOURCES). I am convinced we all believe that early in the orientation process we should give our Class of 2015 a preview of our expectations and tips on surviving and succeeding in college. This way we start as early as possible to get our millennium students off to a great start.

Here are just some examples of possible INTERACTIVE workshops and leaders we might consider:

•WRITING YOUR MISSION STATEMENT Dr. Hill

•HOW TO MOTIVATE YOURSELF Drs. Chambliss, Wismar and Johnson

•ACADEMIC RESOURCES Dr. Cook. Mrs. Robinson, Rose, and Tyler

•RESEARCH /RESEARCH Mrs. Strong and Ms. Charles

•MATH CAN BE FUN AND WE CAN HELP Drs. Frempong, Dia , Cook and Epps

•QEP AND LEARNING COMMUNITIES Drs. Jean–Perkins and Dawkins

Please join me at 11:30 am in PSB Suite 101 to start the planning for the Class of 2015 SUCCESSES. Thanks for your support.
