  2. Recognizing a Need • Student academic services – priority defined by CSS Chairs/Directors • Task force prepared a faculty-driven proposal • Holistic student-centered approach that integrates UG advising with a variety of value-added educational opportunities

  3. Goal of the academic services office is to support our students from entry through graduation, and beyond • This office will serve our College’s various academic units, with: • An average of 1,700 UG majors (with Pre-PSY) per year, and • Approximately 620 UG students graduated per year

  4. The Vision • Linking student-centered advising with staff having the expertise to advance various engaged student learning opportunities, such as: • internships • service learning • research • global learning, etc.

  5. Growing need to incorporate value-added educational opportunities for students • Such opportunities are important for student advancement, increasing retention rates, improving graduation rates, and facilitating success beyond graduation

  6. Lets consider internships • The 2014 Gallup-Purdue Index Report “Great Jobs, Great Lives” “If employed graduates felt their college prepared them well for life outside of it, the odds that they are engaged at work rise nearly three times” • Internships were one of the main college experiences that contributed to workplace engagement

  7. The Stone et al. (2012) Rutgers U. study “Chasing the American Dream…..” concluded that: “Those who did an internship while in college felt more prepared to enter the workforce” “Students who completed an internship while in college earned nearly 15% more on average than those who did not undertake an internship”

  8. Importance of the CSS HUB • This evolving model will support and advance various campus, system, and national initiatives set forth for higher education For example: • OVCAA – improving retention & graduation rates • UHM Strategic Plan (2011-2015) Goal 1: “A Transformational Teaching & Learning Environment” Goal 3: “An Engaged University”

  9. UH-System Strategic Directions (2015-21) Hawaii Graduation Initiative (HGI) • Council for the Advancement of Standards in Higher Education Will assist students in the development of meaningful educational plans • Association of American Colleges & Universities LEAP campaign
