Co-curricular Programming and Faith Experience

  • Expand the development of new programmatic, co-curricular, and service opportunities and increase student participation in existing programming.
    • Overseen by: Daniel Cosacchi, Vice President for Mission and Ministry; Michelle Maldonado, Provost and Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs; Lauren Rivera, vice President for Student Life and Dean of Students
    • Item Status: Work in progress.
    • Update:  
      • Ongoing collaborative discussions between Academic Affairs and Student Life related to Passport and Tapestry, and Residential Learning Communities to encourage student participating in programming.
      • Academic Affairs, Student Life, the Library, and OED, along with Clubs, Academic Programs, Deans and other programmatic participants are collaborating to plan events, programing, and other co-curricular events that do not overlap or saturate the community. This collaboration has resulted in the planning, marketing, and encouraging attendance at programing, events, education, and activities for heritage and history months. This has resulted in many events having higher participation and attendance than in the past.
      • THR1VE’s peer mentorship program known as GU1DE continues. In coordination with the Cultural Centers, GUIDE has been expanded to invite first-generation students to participate. Through one-on-one and small group meetings with students, upper division GU1DES helps to ease the college transition by helping first year students with questions or concerns, sharing tips and tricks about the college experience, and connecting students to on-campus resources.
      • Partners in Learning, Leadership, and Reflection (PILLAR) is a pedagogical partnership program that pairs students with faculty to create, support, and enhance inclusive learning environments that encourage and value all learners, which is in its third year and expanding.
      • In 2021-2022, the Cultural Centers partnered with the First-Year Seminar program and the College of Arts and Sciences to develop an action-oriented workshop to continue racial justice lessons from FYS courses and developing a new and more interactive microaggressions and implicit bias workshop for the College of Arts & Sciences. While neither of these workshops actually ran, the partnerships fostered may lay a good foundation for the future.
      • ROCK (Royals of Color Kickoff), now MOSAIC, early arrival program expanded. This program for new students was a key aspect of efforts to positively impact retention, persistence, and sense of belonging for these students. The feedback from both new students and mentors has been positive, with students sharing that the program helped them feel more connected and comfortable on campus. The Multicultural Center also led an effort to check in with students throughout the year, including MOSAIC reunions throughout the semester.
      • The Assistant Dean of Students and Assistant Director of the Cultural Centers (Multicultural Center) meet regularly to review programming and strive to fill additional needs for celebratory months.
      • The Assistant Dean of Students collaborated with the Cultural Centers in Fall 2022 to expand the GU1DE mentoring program to include students of color as another avenue to ensure continued support.
      • The Cultural Centers continue expanding programming outreach and offerings. In 2022-2023, the Assistant Director of the Cultural Centers engaged in conversations to explore the possibility of bringing services to the Multicultural Center with the Office of Student Support & Success, Financial Aid, Center for Career Development, and the Writing Center. These collaborations came to fruition in 2023-2024 with the Office of Student Support & Success, Financial Aid, and the Counseling Center hosting workshops or sessions in the Multicultural Center. The Center for Career Development also partnered with the Cultural Centers to develop and offer a successful new program, “Major Mingle.”
  • Better understand and identify desired competencies for student learning and development with respect to diversity and inclusion, such that may be assessed through student participation in co-curricular programming. Gather, share and reflect on these outcomes assessment data.

      • Academic Affairs, Student Life, and OED continue to meet to discuss DEI programing and education between academics and student life, including TAPESTRY and Passport programs, Residential Living Communities. Preliminary ideas were discussed at the Dean Retreat related to the TAPESTRY and Passport programs, living learning communities and other collaboration opportunities with Student Life and other Divisions. The three meet monthly to discuss co-curricular programs and ideas.
      • In 2023-2024, Student Life in partnership with Academic Affairs piloted four residential learning communities. The THR1VE community (geared toward first-gen students) and The Latin Thing community (geared toward exploration of Latinx culture and language) were among the communities. Community engagement was encouraged, but not required. The Latin Thing community was relatively small engaging less than a dozen students, but conversations were vibrant among those involved with Dr. Yamile Silva.

      • In Summer 2023, Student Life launched a new, mandatory online education module for the Class of 2027 focused on Diversity, Inclusion & Belonging. This workshop provides a baseline of information for all students to have a common language and to understand the expectations of our University community. Data suggests the module helped students to understand more about creating inclusive environments and increased their interest in learning how to do so. The module is again required for the Class of 2028.

DiscoverNEPA is in the midst of a technical overhaul but was open to working on the project later in the spring of 2023.
