Sophomore Service

You have successfully completed your first year of undergraduate coursework and are not a freshman anymore.

Although the "newness" and excitement of your first year may have passed, there are many exciting initiatives on our campus just for sophomores.

Four areas of strategic focus

1. Focus on Service

As a sophomore, you may be participating in a course that offers a service learning component. Service learning is a volunteer experience that connects classroom lessons with related work in the community. It's a great way to learn about yourself and your community

2. Focus on Engagement

Now is a great time to join a club, try out for an athletic team, or apply for a leadership position on campus. Every year the Office of Career Development and Service Learning and Student Activities coordinates the Campus Involvement and Part Time Job Fair.

3. Focus on Career

All sophomores will be offered appointments (check-ups) with a staff member form the Career Development Center during the fall and spring semester.

• Appointments will be pre-scheduled for each student. The date and time of the appointment will be conveyed to the student via a letter sent to their home address and via email.
• At this appointment, you and the staff member will begin to put together a plan, or check up on existing plans, to help you achieve your career goals.
• In addition to the Sophomore Check-Up, specialized workshops tailored to the particular needs of sophomore students will be held as part of the Coffee and Conversations workshop series.

4. Focus on Information

Important dates in the academic calendar are posted here each semester.
