OVERVIEW

Goal: To help your students learn about their options.

We can make a real difference in our students’ lives by helping them to set goals and focus on possibilities they may never have imagined for themselves and bring them the possibility of financial stability.

ACTIVITIES before, during and after WEEK FOUR
First, get your students to set goals.
Second, help them strategize how to achieve their goals.
Third, explore the college and the programs that are available to them; sign up for a campus tour.
Fourth, prepare them to understand Sy’s orientation presentation.
Fifth, debrief with them; ask them what they learned and what they still need to figure out.
Last,do a scavenger hunt looking for specific places on campus.
And, invite Sy back in the next week for more focused activities.

You can go to the SSCC TOOLKIT and download some lessons to use for each of the above phases.


CAMPUS TOURS
The tour will introduce students to services and resources available to them now and as they progress through the General Studies programs (and hopefully transition into other degree or certificate programs at South. Students will also be briefly introduced to several technical programs available to them while on the tour, and we will also be promoting the university transfer opportunities as well. The tour is designed to help them feel comfortable and empowered as students on campus, and also give them a glimpse of what opportunities are available to them as "next steps."

This could make a big difference in your students’ lives. It may mean the difference between a life of poverty and one that would afford them a decent wage. It connects them more with the world of the college campus and helps them begin to engage in it.
