Success Connections

Today our success coaches helped students “ work smarter, not harder” with time hacks and activities. We helped students examine their schedules and priorities and see what they could improve! It was a great workshop! Thanks to all who came out and for HCC Student Engagement for the collaboration!

Do you feel overwhelmed with your schedule? Does it always feel like you don’t have enough time in your week to get all the things done?

Join your success coaches tomorrow Wednesday September 16 from 12-2 for our Work Smarter Not Harder Event:Overwhelmed to Organized: Time Hacks for Student Success. We will have hands on activities, games and crafts to help you learn how to manage your time! Oh and did we mention, there will be yummy snacks!!

Last week we asked students what their favorite class was so far this semester? What did they say? Looks like the STEM classes are leading the way for students so far! What about you? Do you have a favorite class? Let us know in the comments!!

Sometimes the best conversations don’t happen in an office—they happen on a walk.

Today our Success Coaches took a lap around the pond, reconnecting, brainstorming, and reminding ourselves that supporting students starts with taking care of our own team too. 💙 Every step helps us show up ready to help our students take theirs.

Some doors on campus might be closed or blocked off right now, but ours is still open! ✅
