Creating Communities for Student Success: When students walk into the classroom (or log into the classroom) we hope that they are ready and willing to learn, however many students have competing interests for their time, resources, and energy. This track will focus on ways the faculty and staff from across the system have worked to serve their students holistically by focusing on: mental health and self-care practices/programming; connecting students with campus/community resources for fundamental needs (food/shelter/safety insecurities); and practices/programming that addresses cultural awareness and competencies.

Examples: Recognizing Students Who are Struggling and What to do to Help; Cultural Competency, it’s Not Just for Classrooms; Advising for Life’s Journey in Addition to the Academic Journey; Building a Sense of Community Inside/Outside the Classroom; How to Start a Food Pantry.
