Do You have 30 minutes? Were YOU a first-generation student? Do you have a passion for supporting first-generation students?
Your CCD Academic Advising and Student Success Center is planning a series of Student Success Workshops called “EnJOY CCD.” Designed to take place over several Wednesdays from Noon to 12:30 p.m. on Zoom, EnJOY CCD will:
bring joy, inclusion, encouragement, hope, and a sense of belonging to our students
give us another way to be a community that uplifts each other
create a forum for the expression of genuine caring between students, staff, and alumni
appeal to 1st Generation students and enable us to hold space for them
let us have fun together
Think of it as a “pep talk” to give students encouragement. This is where YOU come in: as a guest host, Zoom chat manager, active participant, or special guest to tell your story.
Each workshop has a theme, such as: You Belong Here, Grit and Determination, Share Your Story, Growth Mindset, You Have What It Takes, Your Community (You’re Not Alone), Finishing Strong, and Pride in Accomplishments, to name a few.
Please email Gary.Cooper-Sperber@ccd.edu and Joy.Schalders-Burton@ccd.edu if you are interested in being a part of one or more workshops. Share this information with any graduating students, alumni, or other folks in your department who resonate with this work.
