Advising Referrals
Students often go to their advisers because they trust them. But sometimes, a referral to a different office or support system is necessary. In this session, we'll look at the relational aspect of advising, review when a referral is needed, and cover some of the most common advising referral offices.
Monday, April 17, Zoom
3:30-4:30 p.m.

Additional session recordings are available—email [email protected] to request.
