One of the key themes that have surfaced through talking with our Kent State students is that
they appear to be unaware of the resources that are available to them as sophomore students.
Likewise, in light of the emphasis on job attainment after graduation, there also seems to be a
lack of student understanding, knowledge and appreciation of their individual programs
curriculum as well as the Universitys curriculum. In working with a lot of millennial students, it
is important to explicitly explain the why of the curriculum and programmatic offerings. Given
the type of students that we are serving at Kent State the following high impact practices should
be more explicitly stated or developed in some cases:
1. Develop moments for student to set educational goals in which require spending
meaningful time engaged their education and curriculum.
2. Create space and opportunities for sophomore students to interact with faculty, staff &
peers.
3. Provide continued diversity exposure through service learning opportunities, education
experience opportunities, etc.
4. Form a culture of feedback This can be provided thought a few different modes
academic advisors, faculty, staff, leadership opportunities, mentoring programs, living
learning communities and the like.
5. Staff & Faculty education while there are a lot of beliefs on our campus in regard to
what students or sophomores need, further education would be beneficial for those
working directly with sophomore students.
