"Campus Connect was an amazing opportunity for me as a staff member to feel connected to my community. I learned so much fabulous 'behind the scenes' knowledge that impacted my day to day operations working in Orientation at ��. Many of the connections I made with presenters and my cohort have been so beneficial -- I have so many 'go to' people on campus after completing Campus Connect." - Class of 2017

"Campus Connect helped me meet new people outside of my department and develop meaningful friendships that strengthened my sense of belonging and aided my mental health. I've never worked on a college campus before and the vast-ness of it all seemed daunting. Sharing this experience with the cohort and understanding how we are connected to cultivate the same kind of inclusive environment for students warmed my heart and, without a doubt, was the best learning opportunity I've participated in at ��." - Class of 2024
