Student involvement and engagement outside the classroom is a key component that builds student success. With Mason’s 10-year Master Plan in development, it is time to step back and reconsider models of engaging all student populations across all Mason locations, from first-year residential undergraduates to off-campus upper class students, from veterans to parents, to online, regional, and graduate students. With the soon-to-be-launched HRL Learning Community model along with the 1st Year Experience Curriculum serving as underpinnings for thought around innovative and experiential student engagement, this session will seek to consider how we can learn from experiences and successes with incoming on-campus freshman and leverage tools that can apply toward other student populations.
