We know the one element that ALL students have in common is their interactions with faculty. We also know that a suggestion from a faculty member is a key factor in getting students to seek assistance and guidance. When you talk with a student, send a personal email, or provide feedback that directs them to services, it matters. So, THANK YOU for taking the time to do this.
As you wind down the semester, don’t forget to tell students you’re looking forward to seeing them on campus in the fall! If they haven’t yet enrolled – they can still do so.
