July Update

Hello Huskies!

As this summer has been speeding by, we've been busy improving the Academic Achievement Center and expanding our services. At the start of the Fall semester the AAC will be offering four workshops a week that will be open to all students. The workshops will cover a wide range of topics and they'll differ from week to week. The workshops will be lead by experienced AAC coaches and successful students. The tentative fall schedule is:

Sunday 4:00pm-5:00pm
Monday 5:00-6:00pm
Tuesday 5:00pm-6:00pm
Wednesday 5:30pm-6:30pm

As the fall approaches, workshop topics will be posted and updated in the Calendar at the bottom of this page. Any changes to the times above will also be updated in the blog calendar. Student groups and classes may also schedule private workshops with the topic of their choosing. To schedule such a workshop please send an email to aac@uconn.edu.

There is also a brand new program in the works called the Coaches' 4.0 Challenge. We're working to create a pledge for students to be intentional and high achieving students. Look for more information in the coming weeks about the details of the challenge and how to sign-up.

As the beginning of the semester nears, I encourage you to visit the AAC once you're back on campus and meet with a coach to be entered into a raffle for $50 Co-op gift card. The AAC will be open Sundays through Wednesdays from 4pm to 8pm. All AAC services are free and available to all students. I also want to remind you that we've made some changes to our meeting locations to offer you more privacy and one-on-one interaction with your coach.

As always, please tell your friends about the AAC and our blog! For answers to your questions please email aac@uconn.edu

Sincerely,
Sarah M.
AAC Supervisor
