and dance, to name just a few.
Weekdays and weekends are jam-packed with scheduled activities such as
dances, movies, concerts, entertainers, athletic competitions, and much
more.
Intramural

ping-pong, skating, broom ball, billiards, and horseshoes.
You can study, hang out with friends, or take advantage of the indoor
swimming pool, television lounge, and game room in the Student Center.
Career
Services
It's only natural that you are concerned about finding that important
job. Each year, the Office of Career Services successfully helps students
find employment while attending school and in their field of study following
graduation. We are here to assist you by providing job listings, co-sponsoring
business and educational career fairs, and offering job skills counseling.
In addition, we will teach you how to write an effective resume and how
to handle an interview.

Services
Student Health Service gives prompt care when you need medical
attention. A registered nurse is on duty weekdays and makes referrals
to area medical personnel when appropriate.
Educational
Enhancement Services
Educational Enhancement Services (EES), a Student Support Services program
funded by the United States Departmtne of Education, is designed to increase
the academic success and graduation rates of college students through
provision of free services to students in the program.
It is the belief of the staff this can be accomplished by
creating a sense of belonging, academic competence, and personal responsibility
for academic success.
Orientation
Each summer, freshman and transfer students receive special attention
during the Student Orientation, Advisement, and Registration Program (SOAR).
You will be introduced to college life and the campus. Individual sessions
are also held with college deans, faculty members, and orientation leaders.
New students register for fall classes and have a wonderful time making
new friends.
To assist students in making the transition to college life, freshman
seminar classes cover topics like time management, test taking, and library
use.

organizations and activities organized to meet the interests
of the students.
