  Academic Program Success Sessions 

 

 TSLC Success Sessions: Spring 2013    

 

During the spring semester all freshmen and sophomore students are required to attend three campus events.  These events must fall in to one of three categories: educational, academic, or event of your choice.  This semester the TSLC office is partnering with TRIO-SSS to offer a wide selection of events which will help you to fulfill your requirements.  Freshmen and sophomores MUST attend one of these sessions, however we encourage you to attend all the sessions which are of interest to you.  The table below lists all the Spring Success Sessions available.  There is a max capacity for the room, so please make sure you show up early to get a seat.   Showing up after capacity is filled will result in you being turned away from the session, and not being counted for attendance.  Plan ahead!
