First Year and Pre-Major Program (FYPP)

Pathways Week

PATHWAYS EXPERIENCE - 2022

Explore Majors. Find Your Passion. Map Your Path.

The Pathways Experience (Jan 24-Feb 4, 2022) was a series of virtual and in-person sessions designed to connect students with majors and co-curricular opportunities. There were pre-recorded and live talks by advisors, live open office hours with faculty, career sessions via Zoom, virtual and in-person Major Application sessions with the Writing Center, and much more. This was an opportunity to explore majors, find your passion, and map your path.

The 2022 Pathways Experience was highlighted on the campus news website in February 2022.
