Undergraduate fair aims to help students find success

The Office of Undergraduate Student Success will host the Second Annual Undergraduate Student Success Fair on Sept. 21, from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. in the Don Taft University Center.

Sheila Fabius, M.P.A., student success specialist in the Office of Undergraduate Student Success said the fair is a large event that promotes campus resources that help students succeed in their studies and, ultimately, complete their degrees. She said the fair was also developed to bring NSU’s academic resources to students in one location.

“Participating in the fair is a fun and interactive way for students to learn about what’s already available to them here on campus,” said Fabuis.

There will be exhibits at the fair along with representatives from NSU organizations including: the Alvin Sherman Library, Office of Career Development, Farquhar College of Arts and Sciences, Financial Aid, First Year and Transitional Programs, HPD Allied Health and Nursing, Huizenga School of Business and Entrepreneurship, NSU Athletics, OIT Computer Labs and Student Disability Services.

Fabuis said she expects a large student turn–out.

“Last year, over 200 students participated in the event,” she said. “This year we are expecting an increase in student participation.”

The $5 Shark Dining vouchers awarded last year to students who interacted with representatives from eight or more exhibits will be awarded again this year. One–hundred and eighty–five participants received vouchers last year.
