Priorities/tasks:
- Play a coordinating role in the organization and promotion of events during Fall Co-curricular Week (FCW) with a particular focus on those events that help support student transition and retention.
- Conduct surveys of (FCW) participants to assist in future planning.
- Provide input to other groups on campus (e.g. Senate ASCP) involved in FCW planning.
- Investigate long-term planning roles and responsibilities for FCW.
- Identify and examine issues facing students in the transition from year to year - e.g. undecided majors/changing majors.
- Focus on those benefits/obstacles that influence transition from first to second year. How can we improve our retention?
