GROW – Great Resources On Weekdays

July 10, 2014 by reslife

Western Connecticut State University

Western Connecticut State University Housing and Residence Life is a featured program.

growThis is a program series meant to help first year students acclimate to university life, and become familiar with processes and resources on campus. They are held weekly during the fall semester – about 45 minutes to 1 hour in length – in one of the residence halls.

Typical topics have included:

  • Working on Campus
  • Getting Involved – Clubs & Organizations • Developing a Relationship with Your Advisor
  • Registration
  • Personal Finances & Credit Traps
  • Managing Stress
  • Time Management
  • Relationships – How to have good ones
  • CHOICES – Alcohol & Substance Abuse Prevention
  • Health & Wellness
  • Becoming a College Student
  • Study Skills
  • Living with Roommates
  • Getting to Know Your Professors
  • Conflict Resolution
  • Staying Safe on Campus
  • Going Green on Campus
  • Financial Aid

We invite faculty and staff to present these programs. For example, the Dean of Students speaks to “Becoming a College Student”, or the director of Academic Advising will talk about “Developing a Relationship with Your Advisor.” We had a faculty panel discuss “Getting to Know Your Professors,” and have had speakers from our campus and the surrounding community. We also provide snacks from a special account we have for food for programs.

GROW run in conjunction with our Academic Resource Mentor (ARM) staff that provide programming support.
