Strong Student Campaign: Information for Faculty
All Red Hawks can be strong students. Faculty and staff from across the university have developed a campaign to raise awareness of the behaviors and actions that strong students develop and implement regularly. This campaign makes explicit what it takes to become strong – it’s small, simple acts that, in total, lead to success.
Please join the Strong Student Campaign by pledging to support students in adopting the small, simple behaviors that are essential to success in college!
You may not have come to teaching thinking you’d need to teach “studenting” skills, but, in fact, it’s those skills that many of our students need support in developing. Successful instructors teach something much harder than their discipline; they teach learning.
Each week of the semester, a new theme is promoted: on social media, on digital screens, in messaging to students and in university classes. The Office for Faculty Excellence will alert instructors about the week’s theme and offer guidance for supporting students in developing the behaviors.
Your engagement can be simple: Share each week’s message through slides, a Canvas announcement, or other tool.
