I wanted to share a new opportunity at Long Beach City College for graduate students in your program or other graduate programs at USC. We are currently recruiting students who would be interested as serving as academic coaches to new, first time students participating in our Promise Pathways Program. Academic coaches will work with students individually and/or in small groups throughout the fall and/or spring semester. Additional information can be found in the attached document and an official flyer is coming soon.
The Promise Pathways is a college-wide initiative at LBCC to increase the number and pace of LBUSD students' college completions by: increasing academic preparation in high school, aligning that preparation to college expectations, and creating well defined and supportive educational pathways for all students toward their goals.
More information can be found at http://www.lbcc.edu/promisePathways/
Please feel free to share with other programs on your campus. Thank you again.
