Attention Students who were in this program Fall quarter!

The Academic Statement Mentor Council is inviting you to come participate in a student discussion and reflection on fall quarter.  Trajectories in Animation, Mathematics, and Physics was part of the Academic Statement initiative during fall quarter.  Your faculty worked with you to help you think and write critically about your education, as well as reflect on it with purpose.

We would like to hear your thoughts and ideas about your experiences with this work in your program!  This is an important opportunity to hear feedback and your creative ideas for the future.

Please come and participate in an open forum to discuss your experiences with fellow students and members of the Mentor Council!  This is your opportunity to shape activities for next year and suggest ideas for the upcoming spring quarter mentoring day event.  There will be tasty refreshments too!

Date:  next Wednesday, January 16th 2012
Time: 12 pm to 1:15 pm (Calculus students, we know you’re in class until 1, but it’s okay to come late; there will be refreshments and an opportunity to participate until 1:45.)
Location: Library 1003
