Parent and Family Programs HCFW Interest Sessions – Get (Re)Engaged! Opportunities for Campus Involvement

Many students find that campus involvement contributes positively to their experience at CSU by promoting a sense of community/belonging, supporting academic/career interests, proving opportunities for leadership, and supporting personal growth/development. Despite this, some students can feel overwhelmed by the amount of opportunities available to them at CSU, or have difficulty identifying an entry point for their specific involvement interests. Many of these concerns have been exasperated for students throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. Join us for an informational session by students and staff from the Student Leadership, Involvement, and Community Engagement (SLiCE) Office about how your student can get involved, connected to others, and engaged in expanding their experience at CSU.
