Conversation starters for March

Tell me about some experiences you’ve had related to your major. Is this something you can still see yourself doing after graduation?

What are your plans for this summer? (Where will you be living? Have you investigated jobs or internships? Do you plan to attend summer school?)

In what ways are you managing stress and staying healthy as we approach the end of the semester?

Do you feel the need for any academic tutoring as you approach finals? Do you know how to make an appointment for academic tutoring at the SARC?

What activities or classes have been the most fun for you this semester?
