For instance, out of the 136 students served, 120 students were provided academic maps outlining their academic paths in their fields of study. The program also collaborated with the campus and the community to deliver a variety of workshops, including those on goal-setting, communication styles, networking with LinkedIn, identity, equity, and self-advocacy, among other workshops including those from the Career Hub, Counseling Center, and the Student Government Association. Additionally, the TRIO SSS program partnered with TMCC’s Financial Aid Office and offered a mixer involving financial/ economic literacy, UNR transfer admissions, and work-study to highlight ways to fund college.
