Dear OSU-Cascades students,

It makes a big difference when you connect with classmates and faculty, and engage in student life activities. Studies show that when you stay engaged like this, you’re more likely to stay on track, succeed academically and complete your college degree.

Plus, connections you make -- even virtually – may one day help you land an internship or a job. Even better, connections make us healthier and happier, particularly during challenging times. Here are ways you can stay connected and engaged at OSU-Cascades this term:

  • Your Faculty – 90% of recent OSU-Cascades graduates said their relationships with their professors helped them succeed personally and academically. Get to know your faculty better, you’ll benefit now, and in the long run.
  • CampusGroups – Use your OregonState email login to access the Office of Student Life’s new app where you’ll find events on campus and online, Cascades Adventures workshops and clinic registration, peer-to-peer chat, news updates and more. Learn more and download the app.
  • Students Clubs – With 22 student organizations including four competitive sports clubs, you’ll find opportunities to explore your interests through educational, cultural and social lenses. If you can’t find a club focused on your interest, you can start your own.
  • Student Employment – Co-workers and supervisors can become lifelong connections. On and off-campus job opportunities are regularly updated on the Career Development Center’s Who’s Currently Hiring web page.

My colleagues on the Enrollment Services and Student Success teams and I are here to help you stay connected every week this term so that you can be successful.  Don’t hesitate to reach out with questions or ask for help at [email protected].

 

Stay healthy,

 

Jane
