Faculty Collaboration Corner  

Let鈥檚 create a more connected, confident, and successful student experience.

Together, we can co-create innovative classroom strategies, build stronger support networks, and foster a culture of belonging.

This work is based on two frameworks:

  • Rethinking Student Transitions: How Community, Participation, and Becoming Can Help Higher Education Deliver on its Promise, by Dallin George Young and Bryce D. Bunting
  • 九色堂 Success Coach framework - under construction.

I, personally, appreciated the information as well. It made me feel more confident in what I know about these services at 九色堂, to advocate, serve and support students better.
